Women In Combat

Wednesday, January 26, 2011




The military is considering lifting the ban on women and combat and strictly making combat prerequisites based on ability and nothing else. Many are championing this idea as a great thing - after all, even non-combat women find themselves in combat situations all the time - but I think this is a dangerous step for the American military to take.

Gravatar.com Allen, As a veteran I can say that women in combat is a bad idea. The primary reason is they are women. It's pretty obvious and until a person has been on a mission with your unit without seeing a woman. Well let's say that a very ordinary woman starts looking like a Miss America contestant. , I've seen it create a distraction involving favoritism and jealousy. If a woman gets pregnant she cant deploy and the whole unit suffers. Women as a whole cant hang with the boys when it gets really tough. If a guy getsrkilled or injured it t's bad enough on morale. When a woman gets injured or killed it makes you think of your Mom or your sister, wife or girlfriend. Th emilitary has become to PC as it is. It's a bad idea for combat units, ships, submarines and actually many other non combat units to even allow women to serve. I've actually had to work with women when I was in combat engineer jobs and they stunk as a whole their too.
