Women have served with honor and bravery in Iraq, flying combat aircraft, serving on supply convoys, etc. I agree not in frontline combat roles until absolutely necessary but from Joan of Arc to the WASPs women have the stones to fight. That picture of the rear naked choke is misleading. I am a blue belt in Brazilian Jui Jitsu and we have a few brown belt women who could choke any of you out in 15 seconds, strong, agile, etc.
Brazilian Jui Jitsu eh? How absurd. Iraq? Afghanistan? We’re occupying third world nonfunctional areas. The concern isn’t what happens in Afghanistan, the concern is what could happen in a prolonged ground war and how the presence of the romantic element diminishes the combat team.
