The only way a woman will ever earn a Ranger tab is if they lower the standards. An Olympic class athlete can probably handle the physical demands for a couple of months, but it's the mental side of it that's the most difficult.
Plenty of instances of soldiers dying during Ranger School, usually from hypothermia while running patrols in the swamp.
The point remains clear: you cannot do the Spec Ops mission with affirmative action operators. To do so is suicide and it spills over into the rest of the team. The weak link gets the others killed.
For those in the know, those identifiers of Spec Ops operators such as Green Berets, Ranger tabs, SEAL tridents, etc. are indicators of a man apart from others. He has survived the harshest training imaginable and has demonstrated a “continue the mission/no quit” attitude that is common only to others within the spec ops community.
Spec Ops is a job that you absolutely, positively cannot fake. You can either do the job or are killed trying because your warrior ethos will not let you quit.
