http://security.blogs.cnn.com/2013/01/23/military-to-open-combat-jobs-to-women/?hpt=hp_c1First the LDS church makes the mistake of recruiting more women to serve missions, now the US army is following suit?
From what I gather, in the Army most women can't keep up with most men, particularly when it comes to ruck marches, carrying or moving heavy equipment around etc. ... Heck, most women aren't issued SAW's or M-249's because they simply don't have the strength to carry them fully loaded. Now this being the case, why does it make sense to put women into combat roles when they are not physically equal to their male counterparts?
I'm sorry but the bottom line is men are built to be stronger and faster than women; that's a biological FACT, and not a gender biased idea. You put every man in that squad's life in danger by putting someone who is weaker in the group, because if you know anything about being in the military you should know that you're only as strong as your weakest link.
