Not knocking THEM, but rather the way they were trained, this is implemented and how much danger they are putting themselves (read, us) in.

I guess with 12% of combat arms soldiers slated to ETS because of DADT, we might need the bullet flingers.



The other problem. If these statements are true, these chicks are dead weight in a firefight. Now, the one chick you talked about might be the exception to the rule, but I am certain that Women like that are few and far between.
Not disagreeing with your comments. Only time will tell and the aar's. Folks that don't like a hot kitchen usually opt out anyways.
