#1 Wish I could say this surprised me.

The armed forces were one of the few institutions in this country that still functioned, so they have to be corrupted as well.

Perhaps we should institute the draft for SJWs.

The 1st Hipster Brigade ("The Neckbearded Knights") is sure to devastate the Russians and Chinese with their lethal memeing skills.

And just imagine what the 51st Neon Haired Harpies ("The Fightin' Fatties") will do with their Tinder DTF profiles if the Iranians act up.

And can you picture Ezra Klein bringing the Norks down with a devastating "Here's why that's a problem"?

Hey, it's their America now. Let them defend it.

#2 No surprise here.

* US-LED ANTI-US OWG-NWO + GLOBALISM = US-GLOBAL/WORLD SOCIALIST ORDER IS THE PRIORITY OR FOCII, NOT NATIONAL SECURITY.

Stopping the Hard Boyz Global Jihad, illegal immigration, etc. ... ... and all that.

DITTO AS PER "SOCIAL-ENGINEERING-VS-WINNING-WARS".

#4 This is sad, really. I had hoped that women had passed honestly.

#5 Part of the "everyone gets a trophy" PC movement and a part of the womyn's movement push. Also a part of the Donk "hustle women's votes" movement for the upcoming election.

The true test is whether these women can perform in combat.

#6 This could end up like the case of Kara Hultgreen, the first female F-14 pilot. She died when trying to land on her carrier. There were rumors that she had been pushed through flight training, despite down-checks that would have disqualified a male student.

They'll never see it. They'll be paraded domestically for the 'recruitment' effort. Probably the yearly re-qualification requirements will be nixed somehow, too.

#8 Sad if true. Sad that it is so believable either way.

#9 On the other hand:
"He intentionally did not walk a patrol that a female was being graded on to ensure there was no conflict of interest"

#10 I'm curious to know what the candidates weight was before Darby and after graduation. Personally, I could see an extremely hard bitch making it through Darby and no further. When the sleep dep kicks in during mountain phase stick a fork in them. I'm sure the RI's were told to leave the LOM's in the rear.
