- Combat arms training and selection courses will have 4 unqualified female observers assigned to them in perpetuity until a cadre of female leaders is established in their higher units

"Who's the CO in this [unit/school/whatever]?"
"LTC John Smith, sir!"
"COL Lauren Schmidt will observe the training here."

- Females will be assigned to operational units in such a way- called “pooling”- as to prevent the isolation of single female combat arms soldiers (for some units this will require females to be “pooled” arguably at the team or squad level if that is the level at which interaction is “favorable”)

Quote:

- A minimum of 3 pooled females in training courses is required in order to ensure an adequate population for training

School slots that could have gone to qualified candidates will be wasted to meet this quota. What happens if one of them is recycled, injured, voluntarily withdraws, or is dropped for other reasons?

- 1 female infantry officer must be assigned to a company before any female enlisted are assigned to that company, in order to ensure they have the best shot at being mentored and being successful

Which means West Point and ROTC cadets aren't safe from the above, which means wasted slots at IBOLC until they find enough people to meet the minimum standard. Speaking of, does that mean a 300 on the female APFT, or the male APFT?

- Higher HQs (division level and lower) are tasked to specially manage and supervise female combat arms soldiers individually in operational units

The lawyers weren't satisfied to judge drone operators' every button-press; now, they want to sit in judgement of the rest of the force.
