Just surviving the winter ranger course is an accomplishment. But did she really do it with a 90lb ruck?

Lowered standards, and now destroyed unit cohesion.

It was exposed years ago that the women got more sleep and more food than the men.
Not to mention lowered standards.

The first women graduated Ranger School in August 2015, and since then women have continued breaking barriers. As long as the barriers have been weakened and lowered.

Women will never ever ever be able to do what men can do, physically. They just can’t.

Nope. I wouldn’t be surprised if she whined until the men took some of the load from hers and added it to their own.

Cool!
Having cheerleaders will boost morale.
Hooray for the Rangerettes!

I wonder how many are there to become better fighters or just to get the merit badge.

A 90lb ruck with draperies.

This is the best information I could find in a very quick search, and it’s from Wikipedia:
“The graduation rate has dropped below 50% in recent years: 52% in 2005, 54% in 2006, 56% in 2007, 49% in 2008, 46% in 2009, 43% in 2010, and 42% in 2011.”
So, 50% of young, physically fit, motivated men traditionally fail out of this training, but women can do it. This defies logic and common sense.

“One hundred women have graduated from the U.S. Army’s esteemed Ranger School as of Friday...”
Great! Start rotating them through the Regiment and see how many survive that.

Years ago I saw a documentary on women in the Marine Corps.It featured two platoons of recruits...one male,one female. It was claimed that the men and women were receiving identical training...no allowances were given to the women.
After one particularly difficult day of training...identical training exercises...several members of both platoons were interviewed. The guys were obviously sore,tired and rather dispirited. But every one of then just said "we're all gonna make it,we're Marines".
OTOH,every one of the women were weeping like little girls.
I kid you not!
The only American women who should be allowed anywhere *near* combat are doctors and nurses.

“...Capt. Shaina Coss, became the first woman to lead Rangers in combat.”
Yeah, I definitely want to hear that war story.

Unfortunately, their achievement has been tainted due to “The Agenda”.
To: where's_the_Outrage?
I have no problems as long as they had to meet the same standards, but not if the men had to carry half of the women’s equipment.
Years ago in the Air Force, we sent a female out to bring in a CADC (Central Air Data Computer). An hour later she came back without it. We asked, “What happened”?. She said “Nothing. It was just too heavy for me to get it down from the airplane”, so we had to send out one of the guys to fetch it. Sigh.

Yeah, but they can't be air dropped though. The whistling noise as they descend gives away their position.

There's no way any of these women (assuming they're BIOLOGICAL women) did this without the standards being lowered significantly for them.
Physically IMPOSSIBLE for a woman.

How much were the requirements lowered? Sorry women, but that’s how it is. Feminists demand a lowering of the standards for women, but equal promotion and pay.
If everyone were held to the same standard, then a medal would mean something and people would respect those who receive an award or a promotion.
