Dear Fellow Freeper Veterans (and other concerned parties), The Issue of the Week over at Intellectual Capital is about the life of the American Soldier.  This will be the topic until next Thursday.  IC has a pretty good message board but there are more than a few aging hippies, trust-fund radicals and other assorted leftoids that hang out there and will be more than ready to bad-mouth G.I.s and all the values we hold dear.

Women have no place in ground combat. Probably not in any combat, but certainly not on the ground. They just get in the way, can't do the job, and will get men killed. We shouldn't put up with feminization of combat merely because the generals put their political futures ahead of the lives of their troops.
