#1 Any company commander or first shirt from the 70s on will say "Yeah, so what's new?"

When two or three of you ladies figure out how to replace a winch cable, service or change a tire on this SOB let me know. I won't be calling you sojurs until I sees it.

#4 ...A lot of the info I've seen indicates that the Captain made the call at least twice that she was in over her head - but the AFSOC leadership was apparently terrified that they'd be held to account.

#5 There are tasks women do as well or better than men (on average) but carrying standard infantry loads is not one of them - they will break down the backs and knees of most men over time, never mind women.

#6 Actually Besoker, we had a couple of Female mechanics who could do that, they could even break track and the other nasty work that nobody ever talks about when crewing a tracked vehicle - thing is, they were few and far between, and there was no special Diversity Equity slack given back then. Either they could do the job or they were moved out to become the unofficial 71L for the motorpool. Same for the guys - they'd move them from heavies to doing simple -20 stuff, or loaned out to being a driver for HQ. Some place where they wouldnt be in the way.

Thanks for your insightful comment CC. Please do not relay my comment to either of them. :-(

#7 This Captain knew her limits, but the brass is too concerned with proving DIE (Diversity Inclusion Equity) dogma to worry about things like putting her in a situation where she would not only get killed due to physical limitations but take her troops with her.

This is sickening, and completely ignores the first job of the military: Win Wars.

#8 completely ignores the first job of the military: Win Wars.

Huh? What's that "win wars" shit all about?

We all know the goal of the woke military is to Protect Pronouns.

Or as Patton said, the goal is to "make our poor bastards D-I-E for our country!"

#9 Looks like a replay of what killed that female Tomcat pilot, top dogs mandated passing…. at all costs.
