I saw them engaged in removing settlers.
Having a unit described as being combat ready and actually engaging in combat are two different things.
I have never been hasty to see any military unit have to pay the butchers bill.The Caracal Battalion is merely 10 years old, and perhaps only 5 years at near full strength.The battalion has been built slowly and carefully , as all good units should be. I am sure they will be bloodied soon enough, the way things are going
in the ME.
Give it a few more years, and we will see how they discharge their duties.
I do not approve of women in combat, but through out history there have been female cadres who engaged in combat.
I do not think women by their very nature are meant to take life, they are meant to create it. That is their primry role in the continuity of human kind. But for those who are combat designated,I wish nothing more than they have the preparation necessary to have a fighting chance to survive.
It will be a sad day indeed if political correctness designates American women to the role of full combat.I hope never to see it.
