Sexist! Then YOU suit up and serve!!!!!
I'm not sure if you're kidding but my hunch is you're not.So I'll respond.
I served.1969-1975.I served honorably,but not bravely.The most dangerous thing I was ever ordered to do while wearing dogtags was eat Army chow.I was never ordered to SE Asia,as so many were.
As for women in combat...my position is unchanged.However,as I suggested earlier,my opinion may not be particularly valid.The opinions of those who *have* served in combat (many of our Freepers can make that claim),however,are absolutely valid.
And lastly...have you ever served in combat?
He already did, as did many of us. There was a woman I was in AIT with who had an affair with one of our sergeants and got pregnant. The sergeant was kicked out of the Army and she was allowed to take the course again.
Any society that sends its women to fight before it sends its non-shaving boys and cane-borne old men deserves to be destroyed and ultimately will be by societies that do not make that mistake.
