The top officer of the Marine Corps sent an unequivocal message to troops: It's time to get behind the mandate to integrate women into combat units.
Gen. Robert Neller released a sternly worded video late Friday, a day after Defense Secretary Ashton Carter announced that all military jobs -- including infantry and special forces positions -- would be open to female troops by the start of next year.
The Marine Corps was the only service to request that some fields remain closed to women, citing a yearlong co-ed infantry experiment that found gender-mixed units underperformed all-male ones.
Despite that, Neller made clear that the Marines were going to lose no time in conforming to the new mandate.

Put them in front to kill Islamic Terrorist since women killing them send them even in their mind to a hell.
Move out? Shouldn’t it be move on? I know Marines aren’t the smartest of them all....probably most patriotic but smarts was never attached that them.
Go Navy - Beat Army!!!!!!!!!
Make them register for the draft...
Now hear this. Prepare to abandon ship. Women and queers first.
So what is Hillary Clinton’s position on this?
Cannon fodder
Ted or Trump need to make fumigation of the Pentagon their first priority.
Political aspirations.
End of story.
how watered down are the requirements going to be?
How is a 120 pound woman going to drag a 200 pound man off of the battlefield in an emergency?
how much can she carry on her back and for how far?
but this issue is so stupid that it’s wasted breath.
I can’t wait till Trump or Cruz plays out the Godfather baptism scene with all the current government and military heads.
figuratively, not literally :)
As this country has been commandeered by preferred minorities (including women & homosexuals), let them go fight for their pro-”gay marriage”, pro-abortion “Great Satan” against the Muslims that would destroy it.
As a father of sons, I’d be the first one in court challenging the legality of a male-only draft. We’ll never see a draft again anyway (after the disastrous manner in which the last one was managed, both during the Vietnam War and afterwards), but any parent that lets a son get inducted by our government to serve in some sh!thole overseas is derelict in their duties as a parent.
Marines are trained to obey civilian authority.
Unfortunately, Congress has abdicated its oath (”I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic...”) to ensure that that authority, the Commander in Chief, is obeying his oath to uphold the Constitution.
Rock - USMC - Hard Place
You squids wouldn’t last two minutes at Parris Island.
I would be certain to keep the names of all the push over generals so that President Trump can fire their sorry asses!
I agree with your post 12. Very well said.
Senior military leadership is pretty close to worthless. They have allowed the military to be systematically degraded during their watch. They have betrayed those who wore the uniform before they did and put up little resistance. We are in deep Kim-Chee. Pray for guidance.
Mixed gender squads have been proven to fail against all male squads... Consistently.
This just insures dead marines when they confront all male squads
Brilliant
Totally not even near what I was saying. You must be a Marine.....clearly.
The concept is about to go into the “test to destruction” phase.
