Mission Accomplished U.S. Marine Corps Might Lower Combat Standards For Women

The first three women to successfully complete the Marine’s Combat Endurance Test (CET) have been asked to leave the rigorous, infantry officers training course for failing to meet the physical standards required.

According to a report from the Center For Military Readiness titled “Where is the Case for Co-Ed Ground Combat?” the Marines are having a difficult time incorporating women in combat roles, while still keeping the same standards they have vowed to maintain for both sexes.

“Researchers are finding this difficult (actually, impossible) to do, owing to naturally-occurring physical differences that make men significantly stronger,” the report states. “Androgenic hormones that are not going to change account for greater muscle power and aerobic capacity for endurance.”

It’s clear that integrating men and women in combat roles will bring on a host of challenges, but should the physical standards set forth for the men charged with the difficult and vital job of fighting our nation’s battles in the toughest combat conditions be lowered to accommodate the goal of gender equality?
 
Same pay but men have to meet higher standards. And yet liberals howl about the "war on women".
 
For a little Marine Corps history it should be noted that the incredible valor of Marines in the Pacific during WW2 was met with timid former bean counter senator Harry Truman's post war plan to reduce the Marine Corps to a ceremonial guard detachment. Tough old Marine career Officers like Brute Krulak resisted the democrat party plan to reduce the Marines and it was ironic that the Marines ended up saving MacArthur and Truman's ass in Korea. Borderline criminal draft dodger Bill Clinton who didn't have a clue about the Military decided that the Army should train both male and female recruits together. Marines resisted and they were called "neanderthals" by Hillary and feminist White House staffers. Here we are again in a radical left wing administration where democrats once more attack the Marine Corps instead of the enemy.

Maybe then you could tuck and enlist.
 
Imagine if a company of temp secretaries paid men and women the same thing even though the women had to type 70 wpm and the men only 50.
 
THis should be a headline story and ti would be if the sexes were reversed. But women are another protected group like blacks injuns hispos faggots and disabled and stories that put them in an unfavorable light have to be censored.
