The standards are the standards. They should remain what they are. If the standard is 6’ then it should remain 6’. I have no problem with that. None. I cannot imagine a Soldier feeling slighted. The standard is the standard.

Now regarding your statement:

“Any society that allows its women to fight on the front lines when not faced with total destruction is a sick nation (morally, ethically, and spiritually). Period.”

1. Too bad you can't debate your logic with a pioneer woman or a released indentured servant. I think it would be a very interesting discussion. (Please, don't fall back on your caveat - unless faced with total destruction. Although, it would be nice to have a few women trained for that scenario, don't you think?)

2. What's wrong with a having a 6+’ American Soldier who is highly motivated, challenge loving, has the heart of a lion, the cunning of a fox, and can shoot like a Texan fight with you? Oh shit, that's right, she's a woman. (slapping hand on forehead)

We put 12 million men in uniform during WWII with a population half of what it is today.

I don’t think we’re going to run out of men.
