A female United States Air Force captain who quit special forces training three times but was reinstated admitted in an April memo that her treatment appeared unfair.
The female captain, who has been named in an anonymous letter posted online as Captain Morgan Mosby, had passed the physical fitness test needed to graduate from the special warfare assessment and selection course in January 2021.
But when she left for Combat Control School in North Carolina - the most challenging part of a years-long training that entails air traffic control, parachute and dive training - the captain reportedly learned that the physical training standards had been lowered.

That’s when she knew they were all against her!
Good thing our enemies won’t be out to get her, so they will give her a pass too.
There is no woman who could pass the actual test. Today’s female SF have had the same benefit as those who benefited from Affirmative Action, IOW, putting people in places they have no business being just to shut up some naggers.
1. Claim that women and men are biologically identical.
2. Admit women into challenging profession based on this theory.
3. Find out woman can’t cut it.
4. Claim that the requirements are sexist and lower them.
5. Profit!
1st Lt. Ashley White Stumpf could pass the actual test, but she was KIA with Rangers in Afghanistan:
In a new book, “Ashley’s War,” best-selling author Gayle Tzemach Lemmon details what these women went through in training and on these dangerous missions, focusing on 1st Lt. Ashley White Stumpf, who was among the first group of female soldiers to go into combat zones as part of a Cultural Support Team, or “CST”. Considered by many of her fellow soldiers as the ‘quiet professional’ and the ‘heart of the team,’ she was the first member of the special unit to be killed in action.
She’s under the impression it’s a lark for the guys, it’s only
hard for the girls, and they pile it on for them.
If she can’t make it, it’s unfair.
LOL
There’s guys with attitudes like this too, so it isn’t only
women.
Not everyone can pass these tests. They want to draw from
the group of men who can withstand conditions that are not
tolerable by everyone. The enemy will.
Looks like the USAF is memory-holing images of Lt Mosby from their sites but it turns out she has at least two degrees of "intersectionality"(black, female). I knew something was up when the Daily Mail didn't include a photo of the article's subject.
So, she had two “cards” in play !
and no neck muscle...
If special forces training was easy, women and minorities would be enrolled.............. OH wait never mind.
Here’s a 150 pound bodysack. Carry it up that mountain. You’ve got 4 hours, go.
The Kennedy administration told him there will be a black astronaut, Ed Dwight. Well, academically and performance wise Dwight didn't finish high enough in the class to qualify. So, according to Gen Yeager, the Kennedy's and their justice department told him Dwight Will be an astronaut anyway.
Yeager steadfastly refused saying that others in his class finished ahead of Dwight and deserved to proceed to astronaut training before Dwight was considered.
Finally the outcome was that all classmates ahead of Dwight and Dwight himself would graduate and become astronaut candidates.
When is the last time you have heard about a military commander standing up for his men against politicians that way?
Wow.
Of course
Let’s base our existence on one in one hundred thousand chances exceptions
I’ve got an idea
“Let’s use unicorns for our mounted cavalry, I hear they can fly “
I am of the opinion that all military jobs should be classified as either:
Combat
Combat support
Support
And three physical fitness tests are needed, one for each. The least taxing would be support (push ups, run/speed walk, situps). If you can not complete this test, you are not fit for military service.
To this baseline, there would be added the new requirement of “sand bags”. This would require the placement of two sand bags, separated by two lines 50 feet apart. The sandbags would weigh 25 lbs. The test would require the picking up of a sand bag, running to the other line. Putting down the sand bag, picking up the other bag and returning to the original line. This would be completed 10 times and would be a timed exercise. This test simulates the repetitive up/down nature of many tasks within the military.
The combat level test would add two elements. A pull-up requirement and a squat requirement. Combat operations often require the upper body strength demonstrated by the pull-up and the leg strength required by the squat.
In order to remain “fit” for your duty job / MOS, you would have to complete and pass the minimum score for your jobs classification. If you can not pass the fitness test, you are allowed a short period to get into shape and test again. Two failures would require reclassification or medical evaluation.
No male vs female scoring - one test standard.
The author (Jude Eden) understands the issues, and speaks honestly as a woman about them.
A brilliant and unapologetic article, backed up with facts.
Kapernick couldn’t play but he taught her well.
Makes too much sense.
And you need to add a longer timed run task in the combat and combat support categories in addition to the sprinting with sand bags task.
