A female United States Air Force captain who quit special forces training three times but was reinstated admitted in an April memo that her treatment appeared unfair.

The female captain, who has been named in an anonymous letter posted online as Captain Morgan Mosby, had passed the physical fitness test needed to graduate from the special warfare assessment and selection course in January 2021.

But when she left for Combat Control School in North Carolina - the most challenging part of a years-long training that entails air traffic control, parachute and dive training - the captain reportedly learned that the physical training standards had been lowered.

“Don’t roll minorities into this.”
It’s just a saying. Used to use it all the time when someone bitched about how hard a particular job was.

In 1984, I had a female Marine tell me she’s a black belt in some martial art. Her fellow Marines all sheered her on to fight me. Stupid move. One hit, knocked her out. A Gunny came over and disciplined his fellow Marines for encouraging a female to fight a man. She was 5’3”, a little tubby, and yet these Marines believed the BS they were handed in Basic that a Marine is tough and can take on the world. Gunny knew better.

According to the article she already sees herself “leading these men”. Bully for them.
