I have no idea of what is going on but I would bet my mortgage payment that they did not go through the exact same thing the guys did.

Of course not. Sounds like they got a bunch of chances too

Students moved through the Darby Phase, the Mountain Phase, and then finally to the Swamp Phase in Florida near Eglin Air Force Base, where 40 students and four instructors were placed in the hospital after being struck by lightning. “

Does every class get struck by lightning?

And you were a Ranger when?

And if you are retired and still making mortgage payments I don't think you should be making desparaging remarks about women who have achieved something you have never achieved.

You would be wrong.
Getting reports they did well. Note that one of the three still failed.

From what I am told they took honest notes from their recycle, and improved in every phase.

The army community, for the most part, has no interest in anyone handed a tab.

On the other hand, they are prepared to celebrate those who earn it.

Reports are these ladies earned it.

No special scoring tables, no slack given by their male compatriots.

Some will still gripe, but for the most part this is seen as doing it the hard way and doing it the right way.

I thought the same thing when I read it, but then I started thinking about lady American Ninja Warriors contestants who run the same obstacle course as men. Two have gone to the finals (if I rightly recall).

Agree, this is BS.

I have no problems with women serving honorably in our military but let's face it, Army Rangers are ELITE. That's supposed to mean something, or so, we would think.
