Ash Carter is a queer. He needs to be replaced ASAP and with a straight MAN, baby!!

Turn the role of women in the military back to what it was in 1960 period.

“Last year, after a series of intensive studies that took years to complete...”

That is not what happened. Obama ordered it and intimidated the Generals and Admirals into accepting it. The ‘studies’ were a white-wash.

Women play a vital role in the Armed Forces...and I'm not just talking doctors and nurses.But the only ones who should ever get near combat *are* doctors and nurses.

They don’t perform the same physical fitness tests. If a woman wants to be in an infantry unit, she needs to be able to perform and pass the exact same physical requirements that a male would have to.

I’m also waiting to see a woman dead lift a 200lb man with an additional 40-60 lbs of gear and fireman carry them 100 yards with no assistance.

Some estimates say that if all combat jobs were closed to women, it would mean there were approximately 300,000 fewer jobs for women in the military.

Are we running a military or a Federal jobs program?

[Last Dakotan]

Hampton says she thinks keeping all jobs open for women is a motivating factor, and she has enjoyed the competitive nature of being a Marine.

Its all about my feels...

'Last year, after a series of intensive studies that took years to complete,
Defense Secretary Ash Carter ordered the military to open all combat
jobs to woman'

Bullcrap...The Marines study said that integrated units preformed much
worse than all male units in achieving training objectives. Carter ignored
the report, attacked the Corps and went ahead with his leftist agenda.

Some estimates say that if all combat jobs were closed to women, it would mean there were approximately 300,000 fewer jobs for women in the military.

Playing with numbers again. There are NOT 300,000 women who are willing to fill these combat positions.

[Jack Hammer]

For countless reasons, women in combat is one of the greatest follies of the obama years - years that were magnificent for their follies and fiascos.

Unlike say-to-day activity, in which idiotic social experiemnts can be tried by the ill-informed and misguided, the military keeps us all alive.

Weaken that and our fine troopers will die, and eventually we’ll all die.

[xzins]

The number of women who would qualify would be so few that it would be an impediment to a military unit 2 half to observe gender differences in combat situations.

That would be an unnecessary difficulty to place upon the unit just for an occasional female who might be able to meet the standards

[Chainmail]

"I don't think that they should withhold the opportunity"

An opportunity. As if the organized murder of combat is just a "job opportunity"! What kind of sick mind dreams up this stuff? Women have no place whatsoever in or around combat. They don't have the stamina, the testosterone/murderous capabilities, and the combatants sure as heck don't need the distraction women would provide.

No.

[Wyrd bið ful aræd]

It was insanity to open combat to women. May God guide Trump to reverse this absurd policy.

I remember he said he would consult with military brass, behind closed doors, to see what they recommend. I also recall that Pence was very against opening combat roles to women. I think there is a good chance that we will see a return to sanity on this issue.

[equaviator]

Here’s a combat role for ya- Combating mold and mildew in the bathtub and shower.

[bassmaner]

Good news, and much needed. All leftist social experimentation in the US military needs to end on 1/20/2017.

1. Reinstitute DADT: no open homosexuality in the military

2. Absolutely no transgenders: immediate removal of such with dishonorable discharge

3. Disband DACOWITS

3. No women in ground combat roles

4. No women in submarine service

5. Eliminate all programs related to 'climate change'

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

As far as this goes, President Trump’s rules for the military should be succinct: “Recruitment, retention and application are based exclusively on mission accomplishment. No other factors matter. Accomplish the mission and you continue to do it your way. Fail to accomplish the mission and you will be replaced.”

“I think that if a woman and serve in combat and keep up with all the men that they should be able to”

No, they should be making a home for their husbands and children. That’s what women do. That’s what women are supposed to do.
