There will come a day when we will pay a horrible price for all these distractions from performing the fundamental mission of the armed forces.

Because....why? Is America so short on men that our armed forces, which makes up less than a 1% of the population, needs people who are not 100% up to the task?

So, we fill our military with women, gays, and non-citizens and drive the men out. Even Rome wasn’t that stupid in the latter days.

My father was on the Marblehead, he described a situation that needed men, torn twisted metal, men and bodies that needed hauling up ladders, chaos and bloodshed all over the ship, heavy temporary repairs desperately needing to be done quickly, fire hoses, all kinds of things that needed upper body strength as the systems and order, and machinery was destroyed or failing.

Well, I would say to the admiral, no disrespect sir, but you are retarded.

Then again, I’ve never much been one to mince words.

I cannot picture women in the small boat Navy where the boat has a crew of 5 to 8. There are no toilet facilities and I just can’t picture some woman holding onto a post on the side of the boat while she takes a dump over the side in front of the rest of the crew.

I agree with one caveat; if other nations accept the PC nonsense for their military’s then the mess will cancel out. If we are the only PC military we are dead.

That’s a bit like saying, in early october of 1929, “I don’t think this stock market thing has much steam at this point.”

The goal will include 1 transsexual on antidepressives
to be Captain of each ship, once he/she has texted
sufficient pics to be acceptable to Admiral Carlos Danger.

The USS Puget Sound AD-38 was one of the very first ships to have women. It had the nickname the “Pubic Mound”.
