[quote=Anonymous]The women army rangers were allowed to repeat parts of the course, on opportunity not offered to most men. Thats a fact stated in the report. I am surprised the horn was blown so loudly. It should be blown when women pass under the exact same conditions. At that point, I think you then have more questions than answers. How does it effect unit cohesiveness? Should we also draft girls now that they have proven themselves 'equal'? Does combat require something other than physical readiness? Why do we expect all men to have that quality - clearly there were many who did not want to go to Vietnam. Should we stop registering all 18 year old men, and only register the young girls and boys who want to sign up? I have questions and I don't like the top down approach to this. I am glad different forces are conducting these studies. I think we need more of them before we make drastic changes. Many more.I hope they are listened to thoughtfully by the brass and congress, but given the priorities when it comes to managing our defense these days I doubt it.[/quote]
