It makes perfect sense if you stop and consider the who the political masters in Washington are and what their agenda is for the military in general.
I've got two words for you... "Fundamental transformation".
And yes, we're fricked as a country. It's only going to get worse from here.
You're such a moron darth

None of that is the even the slightest bit difficult. They should take that list and make it twice as hard.

Its just a baseline to keep weak bodies out. And its more than they had before so its a step in the right direction

You know, many historians agree that one of the reasons the Roman Empire fell was due to lowered standards of its military.
Rome originally had the best soldiers in the world. Then they started adding too many barbarian soldiers (who lacked the formal training) into their ranks.
It was used as a cheaper method due to the ever growing corruption of the Roman politics.
I am not saying the US military will suffer the same fate due to differences in military structure. I am saying that tampering with military training just to appease people is very detrimental to any nation

It's clear that this guy has no idea what he's talking about on this topic and didn't look at your post. Ignore him.

Acceptable level of casualties for the Left. They are focused on the political agenda, not the lives of PissAnts.

My wife and I saw the writing on the wall and bailed after 5 years for me/4 for her.
Hell no both of my parents were military officers as well and both of them say no way in hell they'd join today's military. Crying shame what it's turned into in so many quarters.

It's part of their diversity campaign. they've been doing it for a few years now. Complete bullshite. When I got out, I got my degree and tried to go back in for OCS and the recruiter straight up told me that if I were black, Hispanic, Asian, or female that he can get me selected ASAP. He said if you are a male and applying, even in prior service, you better be Superman. It seems like blatant racism and sexism if you ask me.
"Diversity trumps ability"
The government has wholly latched on to this fairy tale and they are not letting go.

I've worked with elements of the 75th Ranger regiment and the 2nd Special Forces Unit during my last deployment to Afghanistan (Kunar) back in 09 and they were the epitome of professionals. We had zero women going out on patrol due to the female constraints on combat MOS'. Mostly, the women soldiers had admin/ REMF roles in my BN.

The problem is they will lower the standards to get their quotas and find some half-assed way to hide what they did, dipshit
Just like every other instance of "affirmative" action everywhere ever

In what Service did you serve? How did your experience compare?

You're the one calling people out. Why don't you throw your 201 up here?
