More power to you, but the military is a combat organization. That is its purpose. If you do not or cannot engage in combat, you do not belong in the military.
Because this soldier decided taking care of her baby was more important, MANY OTHER SOLDIERS MIGHT DIE because an essential part of the combat machine is left untended.
It MAY not be the case in this situation, but I have NO TIME for the “awwww.... she didn’t want to leave her family” types....
Again. Kill people and destroy things. This is what the military does. It is an all volunteer force. If you do not want or cannot kill people and destroy things - DO NOT JOIN!!!
Agreed. The military is a combat organization. This soldier knew that before she signed the dotted line. She also knew this before she got pregnant. There are some damn fine soldiers who are female and there are some sorry pieces of garbage who are male. Each should be judge on their own merit. She is a piece of garbage for thinking she should get preferential treatment. She chose to join the military for the benefits and now she doesn’t want to pay the piper. “It is only fair when you are being given, not when it is time to pay up.”/s
