“Let me know when you can find anyone that can do that (lift a 900-lb anti-tank gun) by themselves.”
He didn’t say that. It was a Marine fire-team that did that. Point is you could probably only get 4 bodies around that field piece to lift it. Assume 1 of those 4 Marines were a 5’3” female... Do you think that gun gets over the sea wall this time?
Take it up with the freeper.
Nor were/are teams equal. I bet there were stronger/weaker teams that had more and less men who picked those guns up. That is the nature of having a team. It is only as strong as the weakest link.
53 female? The ones I knew in my company were all over 59.
