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

Well, to be fair they've overall cracked down A LOT by putting people on notice/kicking them out for failing PT standards now that everything's technically winding down the last few years. I remember reading recently that the army - who gets stereotyped for having the most people in the worst physical condition (which is totally logical since they're the biggest branch) - letting a large number of people go towards the end of last year.

Very true. The first step in downsizing the force is getting rid of people while still bringing in new and it's nice that they've been enforcing the regulations about the standards. They've also been getting people out on administrative stuff, but I think that's mostly been E8s and E9s with maybe some field grade officers thrown in there.

Right - and it isn't like people are told if you're not in shape by next week we're kicking you out either. My impression is it is more along the lines of "these are the standards as they've always been - you've got x months to improve on PT scores" which if someone cares enough is plenty of time to enact some kind of a life style change. :)
