I don’t love it in a sense, knowing that, even as a woman being groomed for some situation, it is certainly going to personally complicate her life.
But I do love that it puts egg on the face of the people who were pushing it.
That said, I don’t blame women for attempting to fill the spots if the Army opens them. I would possibly do the same in their shoes. I just don’t think the Army should be opening the spots.
But thanks for the link, GailA. I had no idea that had come to pass.
Nor had I, and I usually keep up with Military news. I thought women on Subs was a dumb idea. They are bad enough to deal with on shipboard.
There are just some jobs that women don’t need to be in. I’m old fashion. But women have proved they can to some extent do most any job. WW2 proved that when women who were stay at home moms became the factory work force.
I’m not that old, but did factory work to support my boys and myself. Not a easy job either. Their father became an abuser after his tour in Nam, that I left with out looking back. Took my time choosing a second time around. None of all these safety net programs worth a spit back then. Then you had my pride to factor in. I bore them, I’d support them with a little help from my parents with babysitting on school holidays and summer. Traded off by taking my mom who didn’t drive shopping, which my dad hated to do.
