The time is coming when we will need all the bodies we can muster. Period.
Sounds like they WANTED TO DO IT. Sounds like two of them DID IT.
OUTSTANDING.
I completely disagree that America NEEDS to send it’s women into combat. America has more than enough men to go into combat.
The fact that they supposedly want to go into combat says more about how they’ve been mislead about what combat is about then about anything else. It also speaks very poorly of America’s culture and military leadership who approve of sending women into the combat meat grinder.
The truth is though that women and other soldiers in areas that aren’t combat arms have been jealous of the soldiers in combat arms moving up the chain faster because of how many boxes get checked off by going to Ranger school or other combat schools. It’s more about career advancement than anything else.
