FWIW...
KTLA, L.A.'s Tribune affiliate, ran an interesting story on the SecDef's announcement yesterday evening. After the reporter framed the debate, the story aired three sound bites from interviews.
The first was a man who had served with the 82nd who said he think women could do the job. Next was a retired Marine--who, from her comments, was an aviator. She thought women would find it much tougher than they thought.
Finally a young-ish very, ahem, athletic civilian got the last word. She said that as long as the standards are the same and women are allowed to try, then they could succeed or fail and the outcome would be fair.
