If we can find enough of them willing to learn Pashtu and Dari I say let them join the US Army. Especially if they maintain the current recruitment standards. We need females for select roles and none of ours are cutting it. 50 slots for 15,000 applicants has phenomenal potential for getting exactly what's needed. I can just see Hadji getting stomped by one of these ladies. Not to mention how "motivating" it might be for some of the male slugs in our Army to have the comparison/contrast held up to their face.

A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C)
