How is permitting women to serve in combat “sacrificing efficiency”?

Towards the end of WWII Hitler sent old men and boys to the front because he was losing the war and desperate for more troops. So I’m concerned about what this means with regards to our involvement in the Middle East. This article just confirms my suspicions that we are overextended in the Middle East, that we are losing in Iraq and Afghanistan, and/or that 0 is planning another ill-conceived war.

I'll say it raw; Men are stronger, physically and emotionally. Men are built for war, women simply are not.

Say a 220 lb. guy gets knocked unconscious; even a pretty strong women wouldn't be able to drag him to safety.

It is an ill-conceived plan. Leave it to the liberals to screw stuff up.
