I've been consistent on these threads, Keith. Women that CAN and WANT to, will do it. Women that can't, or don't want to...won't. Funnily enough, it's just like that for men, too!

SN Greg Wright, isn't that strange that women and men who want to do it, and women and men who don't want to, don't. There's equality for you. LOL

Yeah, sorry Sgt Ivan Radusinovic, I don't write them, I just post them.I have to admit, the women doing this and that, like the men do, is getting to be old news. I'm for them, and the men to accomplish their desires.

I didn't mean it towards you, but the amount of attention, and no resolution that "we'd" like to see.

If the time comes when 'not enough' women can pass the physical fitness test standards, the PC warriors in DC are going to put pressure on the services to justify and explain just how those standards are necessary to demonstrate ability to perform essential military tasks. For example in my limited time in the MC I was never called upon to climb a 25' rope with full gear and pack on except in a PFT. I never was asked to run 3 miles with full gear on in any military situation, task, or mission, except in a PFT. We never stopped on patrol either in combat or training exercise, and did 20 pullups, 40 crunches or 40 squat-thrusts. There has to be some relationship between the physical fitness standards and the job itself. The hard part is figuring out the level of physical fitness needed to perform various military tasks and then come up with a test to measure that degree of fitness in men and women.
