Men and women serving side by side?

According to reports, the Navy has fired seven ship's captains so far this year. -From Military.com
Not sure what the number of Navy ships battle ready but that is a pretty high percentage. Nothing against women but the two sexes have no business deployed for months on end. It cost too much money to get a man ready to command a ship with hundredes if not thousands of sailors under their command. And that will put other service personnel out when they let gays serve openly. Our Military Service is headed down the drain I afraid.

I agree. If I were king of the US, there'd be no women in combat.

On the other hand, the males in the military would be different, too. (No criminals or illiterates.)

But then we would not have thousands of troops in Europe and Asia if I were king, either.

I'd move them all to the Mexican border until that crap stopped.

If I were running the show there'd be no women in combat positions...not because they aint capable...just too much of a mental strain on the warriors...harder to maintain focus and discipline

Course if I was running the show...we'd be kicking some serious A and then getting home....no screwing around...literally or figuratively

ask Stryker6 about what He's seen in recent times about how the women are doing over there now in the current "police action".

Maybe a few others who have served can weigh in on this with 1st hand knowledge....

I know it would bother me a bunch if I had a woman beside me all shot to sh!t....its just the way it is...

I don't know how the Israel's pull it off...aren't their women...really men?...

You'd almost think the idiots who come up with this stuff wanted the US to FAIL............

would not want my daughters to serve in combat.
