The whole concept of “combat effectiveness” assumes the idea is to win wars. It means nothing when the grand strategy is to get political advantage by keeping the war going indefinitely.

Liberals see the military as the biggest government social program there is.

Yes, that’s the easy word, but I am thinking about the captured, Lebanese pilot who was set on fire in a cage, the fire put out and a load of broken, concrete blocks were dropped on him.

Any serviceman’s death is tragic, but those folks use the means of death to demoralize the living. As taught by mohamd

first off, don't tell me what I know, thought police don't exist just yet.

Secondly (biologically or physically) I have seen women of my acquaintance stay out in the field (granted it was “mock” wargames) who were there a hell of alot longer than this (alright I'm OLD) devil dog.

What once was a Fact, has in some cases been proven Fiction. I don't judge all men that I've served with the same, and I sure as hell don't judge all women the same. Sand, guts, fortitude aren't always about what's between your legs.
