All-male ground combat units in the Marines were faster, more lethal and less injured than units with mixed genders, according to a Marine Corps study that looked at integrating women into all service jobs.
“All male squads, teams and crews demonstrated higher performance levels on 69 percent of tasks evaluated (93 of 134) as compared to gender-integrated squads, teams and crews,” according a summary of the report released Thursday. http://thehill.com/policy/defense/marine-corps/253361-navy-secretary-rejects-report-showing-female-marines-less-capable |

| We have affirmative action in elite schools. Why not on the battlefield? |

Because in elite schools, women are not required to carry injured men away from harm. You're in a burning building and cannot get out yourself. You are too weak to walk. What happens if the individual who comes to your rescue is not physically capable of lifting you up and carrying you out? |

Because affirmative action in elite battlefields does not cost other people their lives. |

| Easily fixed. They can set physical requirements for the combat positions. If the women can't make the grade, they don't get the job. If/when they do, then so be it. |

| Women will have valuable perspectives to offer on the battlefield and in the mess hall. |

| Two women recently passed the Army Ranger physical test, and in some cases did better than some of the men. I think if a woman is physically qualified, let her. But no, I don't think they should have aa on a battlefield just for gender equality. I am a woman. |

From what I read it won't be only those who are equal to the task but rather a mandate for a certain gender integration level. |

It works for Israel, and according to conservatives, that's the best military around.
So if it's not working here, then we are doing something wrong. |

| It's also working quite well for the Peshmerga. Some female Peshmerga units have gotten renown for being the fiercest anti-ISIS fighters out there. |
