I was at an event today and it was made known that I did 20 in the military... then these women start talking near me saying that we female vets/Active Duty are a "distraction" to the men in the military. I bit my tongue but I was so pissed when I got home... My dogs probably think I am crazy. These stupid women have NO idea what it is like being a woman in the military yet they run their pie holes like they know. I think it is denigrating to our service. Glad I didn't act on my feelings because I would have ripped them a new one in front of everyone.

PO1 Kerry French I'm going to assume that these women who said this neither served in the military or grew up in a military family....people like that don't deserve a response...They'll never get it and they would never make it in the Military. I would ignore them because they are truly IGNORANT.

To the women, I usually say one of two things:
1. Nobody wants your man.
2. Well, tell him to be a better human.

To the men:
1. If you're that distracted by us, maybe you don't have the discipline to be in the service.
2. Sounds like a personal problem.

I also employ a variety of facial expressions, all shady.

When I was a PFC at Ft. Riley, KS, I was tasked with gathering transmission oil samples from all of our trucks. I was also told to train a newly-assigned male PV2 on the proper way to do this task while preventing contamination of the samples. As we were walking out of our shop, this idiot PV2 said, "Women don't belong in the Army, especially in the motor pool." I stopped dead in my tracks and I did rip him a new one. He never insulted me or my gender again.
