Wow. The Seals, Green Berets, Rangers, etc., are going to have to lower their physical standards a helluva lot. Dempsy is already assuming women will be in those units, so obviously standards will HAVE to be lowered.

101st, Gulf War I: HHC. Several females.

Tactical showers built with slats for sides and open areas upper and lower -- so you can see around you when showering. . .in the field, in combat, never let your guard down.

Females complained that the men watched them shower. . .so. . .females got their own shower built, complete with full walls so no one can see then. . .and they couldn't see outside either. Tactically unsound and dangerous, but hey. . at least they had privacy.

Field latrines, half-50-gal drum with waist-high sides around the “toilets.” Must have half-walls because in a combat environment must be able to see around you even when sitting dow doing your business. . you are vulnerable. . .can't let your guard down. . . .unless you are a female.

Females complained and they had their own $h^^ers built, completely enclosed, of course, so the men couldn't watch them.

So, men had no privacy but women were afforded all the privacy they wanted. . .regardless of the tactical requirement to be alert, aware and able to respond,

No sir, standards and privacy will not be compromised, no sir (sarc/)

“Weak Link” book by Brian Mitchell is an excellent read to discover just how much combat standards have been lowered already. . .

Well, separate but equal. See?

I think an aspect of this isn’t being discussed much.

Traditionally, intentionally killing women and children was held to be the ultimate dishonor for soldiers. This was because women and children were by definition noncombatants.

Now women are equally potential combatants as men, and the rationale for excluding them as targets just went away. Hopefully, kids will still be off the list.

The general probably is gritting his teeth saying this...let’s face it: real men don’t like Obama. They may have to follow his perverted orders, but they don’t have to like him.

I am betting a lot of stuff will be revealed about the perversion of the military once the perverter of the military is out of office.

This country has literally become one big edition of ‘The Onion’. Every day a new outrage or mind-blowing stupidity. Yet every time I think ‘well, this is it, we have finally hit rock bottom and have nowhere left to go but up’, things sink even farther and get more ridiculous. I really have no idea where it will stop at this point. Every facet of our life, country and culture has been infested with a virulent, ebola-like virus of liberalism. Everywhere/everything it touches it multiplies, sickens and finally destroys in an agonizing death. And right now it looks as if nothing can stop or even weaken it until it runs it complete course of utter destruction.

Our Generals are no different than the Chicom Generals or the Soviet Generals were. If they are told by Obama to disarm American citizens they will do their damndest to complete that unlawful order. Perfumed princes make me hurl.

The Army can always provide them with folding Privacy Mesh
Screens (PMS-1)for their rucksacks.

What’s a little extra weight when compared to the privilege of sharing danger in a muddy foxhole?

I think Dempsey is a full-on moron. He and Joe Biden must have been separated at birth.

PING!

Scene: Fierce fighting, many killed and wounded on each side. Shouting and screams and gunfire.

A female soldier on the US side stands up in the foxhole.

Female soldier: Cease fire for a while guys. I have to go potty.

Both sides stop shooting.

The female runs towards a mobile porter potty placed at a safe distance. A sign on the door reads GUN FREE ZONE

Patrol sergeant: If youve got em light em.

The other soldiers light cigarettes, chat.

Female soldier returns.

Patrol sergeant: Commence fighting.

Ah yes the newer more female friendly army, wars etc.
