Meh, good for her. Even if they lowered the standards for me, I'm not sure I could make it right now. I'm not at optimum fitness at the moment.

However, if she didn't finish the course to the standards as every other Green Beret did, I'm not sure I would want her in my unit. It would always be in the back of my mind that we could have a weak link in the unit.

FIFY, and the answer is, A LOT.


Maybe she could, maybe she couldn’t. But then again, I’m not on the teams, nor am I trying out for the teams.

What I do know is that from the minuscule amount of times that I’ve spent around those people is that she will definitely be the weakest link on whatever team she’s on. And that’s not me being sexist either.

If she completed the exact same training and testing as the men then I have no problem with this.

Can’t argue with that .... but doubt we’ll find out soon

I think she would have to wear a Raspberry Beret, the kind you find in a second hand store.

The Secretary of Defense forced the Army’s and USMC’s hands when they were doing gender integrated unit training in like 2014 after both branches came back and said they’re not good at even basic infantry unit tactics and maneuvers. Their efficacy fell far below all men units by a multitude of at least three.

Furthermore, they get injured at a higher clip, don’t have the stamina, and can’t shoot as well.

Ash Carter (or Hagel, I can’t remember which one it was) said “I don’t care, push them through”

But yeah, I’m going to really believe that this woman passed one of the most grueling training regimens the US military has to offer without lowering the standards or somebody pushing her through.

Flash forward 1 year... chick is 3months preggers and the 4 different guys she was banging in the unit just found out about each other. Morale, of course, shoots up to all time high. And Combat effectiveness never better ........ lol

The area is shared with the Eglin Air Force Base-based 7th Special Forces Group, which is the active Regular Army Special Forces group responsible for the same region.

You're either A) a midget or, B) 12 and not gone thru puberty yet. Or most likely, C) stupid and buying into what hollywood and the media has been telling you for years: that women are badasses. That skinny chicks can kick grown mens asses. That they are no different physically despite being physiologically different in bone density, testosterone, musculature, etc, etc. No woman is kicking the average mans arse.

Yep but they’re hardly part time. I think they’re deployed more than they’re home

No, no she could not....

This isn't Television, this is real life.

Unless a man is in a wheelchair or farting dust, it is statistically ZERO that a woman whips a normal mans arse.
