so what makes the infrantryman uniquely capable of handling that day in and day out intensity? Is it a poor asvab score, inability to get a security clearance, and testicles, or is it just the testicles?Really. Explain the difference between infrantry clearing a building and Mp's doing itYou think women don't have combat experience right now?I believe women do have a place in the military just not in combat roles. Imagine if the were to bring the draft back, and the updated draft included women. Would you have a problem with women that were drafted being placed into a combat mos? Remember they did not volunteer and maybe they maybe your daughters.
What they really want is women to advance to field commanders and beyond. So as long as they don't serve in the infantry, that will be an impossibility. No grunt wants to be led by a woman who has never been a grunt herself and no president will promote a woman to lead men in combat when she has never served in a combat role. In short, no combat experience equals no female field commanders and it's driving the Femin-Nazis wild with anger.
Seems like those with a problem with women in the military either know little about the military or little about women.
Riding down the street and taking fire as a coincidence is much different than locating, closing with, and destroying the enemy by fire and maneuver. There is a reason why the infantry gets a different combat distinguishing device than non infantry types in the Army.
Show me a female MP clearing a building in a combat zone and tell me why they're there and I will tell you the difference. Lets not deal in hypotheticals. Like all jobs in the military you are subjected to combat in one form or another. Only direct combat roles are subject to it day in and day out at the intensity that no other unit enjoys. Only direct combat roles have the task of locating, closing with, and destroying the enemy. never has an MP owned that role. They're may be MP attachments from time to time but they aren't there to be grunts. In two combat deployments I have never had a female anything attached to my infantry unit. The only time I ever saw a female MP was during the first elections where they needed women to pat down Iraqi women at the polling stations. And trust me, we secured that polling station.
