Re: Pentagon lifting ban on American female troops in combat MOS

[identity profile] natural_blue_26.livejournal.com 2013-01-29 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
There's plenty of woman out there that can wipe the floor with plenty of guys - the problem is more that women aren't held overall in most branches of the American armed forces to the same physical standards are men, and have completely different PT scores they have to meet to be considered 'fit for service'.

Not that my two cents matter for much, but if these standards were raised people might be less squeamish about 'officially' sending women to the front line. (Which doesn't specifically exist in a place like Afghanistan like it did historically in previous wars.)
