“were allowed to recycle through the program after they fell out in their first go-round”
There’s no “do over” in live combat........I’m afraid people are gonna die because of this, probably even some of these females.....I hope not but I wouldn’t doubt it.

Don’t worry. They’ll get a trophy...posthumously, of course. Maybe Obama will pull out his Greek columns and do it up right.

If the standards or qualifications for the job are reduced, neutralized or otherwise changed to permit unqualified individuals to pass, then it is NOT equality.
You are correct about do-overs in combat but most of the male washouts get a second chance dependent on which parts of the program they failed and why they failed.
A second time around will produce the same results.
If a woman can meet the criteria, pass the course, and maintain that level of training, fitness, and proficiency standard then fine but I would expect that few will actually be able to do that.
Now, weakening the standards is another matter that should never be allowed to happen.
