This is my humble opinion, take it as you will\n\nAmerica overall is not ready to see women POW/MIAs, and they are especially not ready to hear about hundreds of them dying.  This said, there are many women who physically could do the fighting, but there are many women who could not.  The same goes with men, and the less strong men are used to drive vehicles or fly airplanes or do other non combat roles.  Women could do these roles.  Medical roles, cooking, flying and driving and doing whatever else non direct combat roles are available.\n\nI am not trying to be sexist, but the fact is, no one would want to see their daughters drafted and sent to war.  Some may society has yet to evolve, some may agree that it should never happen.  Either way, at this time and place, women should not take place in direct combat roles, nor be drafted in the conventional sense.\n\nIf the need is great enough, and Iraq will not creat that need, but hypothetically, a special draft could be used to get women into jobs that are needed for them to do.  But I repeat, they will not, nor should no, be sent into direct combat roles.\n\nYou know I'm not sexist, but thats my rambling for today\n\nEDIT - CandyCane is right, a man would probably be distracted in worrying about his fellow female soldier's safety

www.anysoldier.com    You can send packages or letters. You can pick a female or male soldier. There are plenty of them on this website.\n\nThank you for supporting the troops!

Friend - I cannot argue with what the others have said.  If you join right now, no question you will be deployed to Iraq.  If you still want to do it with that in mind then by all means, do it.  My son went through boot camp and his first deployment and current deployment with young women in his unit.  They were not giant weightlifters either, lol.  Best of luck to you.  GBU

well, a green beret is a HAT, for one thing.   I suppose you mean Army Special Forces?  Why does every kid always want to know about Navy Seals, Rangers, Special Forces, Force Recon?  From all the video games, right? Hey, get a life-really, special operations units are all different and they all operate will different objectives in mind- no one is "better" than the others- who's tougher? who's badder?  Who cares?  They could all kick your video-game-playing arses.  Hell, a fat female army Specialist working as an admin clerk could whip up on you.

You can thank the intergration of females into army ranks for the reduction of readiness amongst recruits.\nHave you noticed, the Marine Corps refused to allow women to tarnish its training regimen.  Women in the Corps, are trained seperately, and that's the way it will stay.  So Pelosi, Boxer, and Clinton can whine all they want, this one they will not change.

There might be some women's only military high schools, but there are no women's only military colleges.\n\nFor several years, the Virginia Military Institute had a Women's Leadership program with a cooperating female-only civilian college, but when VMI went co-ed the program was allowed to lapse for lack of interest.

Whether the use of spell check should be a law..;)\n\nSeriously, a good topic would be taking one side or the other as to whether women should be permitted in combat or to be permitted in combat usits (special forces, etc.)\nGood luck!

of course it is. When i was in the militry I had a non-combat arms job. Women were available for this MOS and there were women in my unit. However, sad and un-PC as it may be to say but they could not do my job. Yes they could handle the technical and theoretical aspects required but they fell sharply behind on the physical requirements. My team was short handed and every time they tried to give us a new girl we wold politely decline so that other teams could have her. We were always the fastest and technically superior team. I understand that there are stronger women and there are pip squeek guys but these are not the norm. ( JUST ONE EXAMPLE ) from a man who wishes for the best but realizes the truth

I think you should think about a story involving women serving in the military, whether it is placed in the time of WWII, Korea, or Iraq. \n\nI don't think enough people are aware of the contributions women make in war efforts.\n\nJust a thought.

I am a FORMER Marine. The physical fitness regs are not the same as for male recruits. The USMC does recognize that there are REAL differences in physiology in males and females and cannot expect the same results to the same physical tasks. If the Corps sees this, I know the USAF does.Don't fret, Mom, they'll get her up to speed.

If it came down to it and we were in a full out war to save our nation then Yes I'd serve.  I come from a military family and would be very proud!  Women should serve but not be in the front lines...personal opinion.  I think women are capable but shouldn't be on the front lines and I have many reasons.

Same thing I think about all women in the Navy.  If they can perform their job, then they belong there.\n\nIts the same for ANYONE in the military.  If you can do your job to the best of your abilities, then you belong in the military.  If you cannot do your job, then you shouldn't be there.

Of course, no. The only reason women are alowd to participate is to appease feminists and because of technology. With technology, women are able to fight grown men from a distance. However, in close combat the woman is greatly disadvantaged.\n\nAlso, women have greater dangers than men. Men are killed and/or tortured. However, women tend to be preserved for sexual pleasure and torment.\n\nIn addition, women's emotions are too unstable. In war, one has to be all but a robot. One has to be stone-like. Women have too much compasion and pity, (which is an advantage for certain problems, but not for war). Pare these with a woman in her cycle and their could be confusion and chaos.\n\nPlus, women distract men. One weakness of even the toughest men, (in fact, more common in the more masculine men) is a tender eye for women. Men can see another man shot and keep moving. However, a women being shot will easilly distract a man. In war, men cannot have distractions. War is about survival, not politics and feminism. We need our men to do the job without hinderense or distraction.\n\nA woman's availability is to uncertain. With time, many men and women want to start a family. However, by God ordained nature, the woman's body is deticated to child bearing durring pregnancy and post pregnancy. The fate of a nation can not rely on an unreliable military.\n\nLastly, a nation that sends all her citizens to the battlefield has no one to defend the home. If both men and women are battling, who is protecting the children and homeland? Throughout history, men fought in the field, and women "held the fort down". Such a stradegy is safest, wisest, and most logical.

Congress has legislated that no women can serve in Combat Arms Military Occupation Specialties.  Rangers, SEALs, and Special Forces are composed of Combat Arms Military Occupation Specialties.

I have been accepted by the USMA. I am a female moderate, who happens to be born from parents from different parts of the world. (Guyana & Kuwait). I found, that it is a matter of being qualified. I know of 6 other cadets who are Hispanic, West Indian, Chinese, and Korean, who've entered The Point. I also know that there are many people who come to WP from their just to train and lead their Armies with adequate competence. Media is media...and the lack of diversity is what it apparently transgresses.

I think it is because there are still some jobs that women are not alowed to do in the army.  They can't be in a tank crew and they can't be in infrantry.  My husband was a tank driver and he said the reason they can't be in a tank crew is because the tank is so small and there is the chance of getting stuck in it.  He was also an Mp and work along side women.  When you are in the army it is not about the sex of the person, it is about if the sh*t hits the fan, will they cover you, and will you cover them.  I think alot of women don't join the army because they don't know much about it.  i would join, but i have two kids and I don't want to leave my husband responsible for them if I had to go to war.
