Look at her physique, typical slender female arms and no possibility of developing the upper body strength necessary to perform the difficult and arduous tasks required of an Army Infantryman.
But that's not as important as having Diversity.

Bttt.
5.56mm
How far can she pack 90lbs?
Meanwhile today, the USS Carter Hall an LSD is out of service. Sugar britches is missing. Her boots and a note were found on deck. Massive search for her carcass. Followed by the relief of duty of several officers for harassing her, not noticing she was depressed, etc etc.
She was as good as an enemy sub today.
And when she decided she doesn’t like it all she has to do is.......get pregnant.
She will be given special treatment, rushed through training, then promoted so there is zero chance she will ever see combat.
She will graduate from OSUT and all the networks will be on parade at the Infantry Museum to record the historic graduation. She will be assigned to an Infantry battalion and as soon as the media have disappeared, she will become the Adjutant’s driver and she will be in charge of making coffee in the TOC. When the battalion gets deployment orders, she will discover to be pregnant and the Sergeant Major will have to find a replacement.
If she can pass the tests, do everything the other applicants can do, make the grade FULLY, and carry her load in all respects, than stop knocking her. You naysayers all sound like a bunch of p@ssies me.
She’s a friggin stud if she can make the grade, and maybe she can’t. But the fact that she’s going to give it her best is awesome. So how about supporting this brave young AMERICAN woman who’s got bigger balls than almost all of you tough guys who are knocking her. F@ck diversity, she’s a brave, tough, patriotic stud, and I hope she can cut it—no freebies or shortcuts.
If she fails, how about admiring the massive guts she’s got for trying to make it on one of the highest levels within the greatest military on earth?
Stop complaining. It’s historic! Obama’s favorite catch phrase.
Active Duty ping.
She doesn’t look particularly fit, and being that broad across the beam, her lack of upper body strength is going to be a major disadvantage.
Back a few years ago, Natick Labs conducted a study of troops in Afghanistan, and they found the average combat load carried by each soldier was 63 pounds... That’s the K pot, body armor, weapon, ammo, water, etc totaling approximately 36% of the soldiers body weight.
The average “approach march” load out is 96 pounds or 55% of his weight. An “emergency approach” loadout is on average 127 pounds or 71% of his body weight. A 60mm mortar section leader would carry 142 pounds on emergency approach which is 97% of his body weight.
She is in for a serious reality check especially @ Ft Benning during the summer.
My bet is she chapters out or reclasses before the fourth week.
The politically correct Pentagon, Congress, and Selective Service System uses the women who volunteer as a precedent to say, "Oh, then ALL women must."
"If some young women want to, then ALL young women must enlist, because this is 'fairness.'"
She was a cop? She looks to be about 15.
