25 women who broke one of the Navy's final gender barriers have gone on patrol and been accepted among their crews.

Ahh, peachy keen, just like the repeal of DADT has gone so smooth. /sarc

There was a rather extensive thread over the past several days about women getting into Ranger School. My final take on it was this:

In 5 years after women join the Rangers/SEALS/Delta/(I add in Subs here) you will hear talking heads in and out of the military who will say things like:

NEWS ANCHOR/POLITICIAN/MILITARY COMMANDER: “When we integrated women and homosexuals into these units, people were saying it was going to be a disaster, that it would hurt mission capability, morale and such. We are more capable now than we have ever been, and have the moral buttress of diversity and equality. Remember how they said the same thing about the military when blacks were going to be integrated back in 1946? Same result here...the world didn’t end, and it won’t. It was the right thing to do, and we can all be proud of the diversity we now see.”

I HATE it when I am right, and this quickly, too.
