I’m sure some tough as hell lady Marines attempted and I salute them. They’re a credit to the Corps and the country. Keep your heads up, Marines!
No salutes from this woman. They should stay the heck out of the military, IMO.
Being a “lady” and, “tough as hell”, strikes me as closing in on an oxymoron. Infantry, while being a woman, doesn’t cut it in the Marines. But we all knew that didn’t we?
A huge experiment in futility, and not exactly cost free, but salute away if you must. The “ladies” got their bustle handed to them alright. But we all knew that, too.
