#2 It's not just the USAF, and it's not just Physical Fitness Standards that have been lowered. Sadly, this is not a new phenomenon.

#3 Standards are set by the enemy in the real world. They don't care about 'equity' only victory.

#5 So if you are a woman who is in one of these elite units - you are now deemed only in the unit due to 'Affirmative Action' - even if you are full qualified and might have passed the 'normal men's' qualifications.

I'm sure that's a morale booster right there. (/sarc)
