NHL - (Not Hardly Likely three American women on the French train could have subdued the terrorist.) - Oh, I could have SAT on his head; at 185 lbs.; that might have crushed his skull; butt that’s a stretch!
Several years ago, an acquaintance who was an Army officer stated that when they got a bugout signal; the women in their outfit did NOT have the upper body strength to lift the heavy equipment onto the trucks in order to “bug out”. So - they could not and did not bug out. He left the service; & from the looks of things; it’s only gotten worse & worse & standards have gotten lower & lower. - Now that Hussein has readied himself to deliver the death blow with his “fundamental” change to America, take my word for it, standards aren’t what they’re advertised to be
I would probably offer this observation that to some degree...body-fat standards and fitness scores have created a new force (to include guys)....who lack physical strength to fill or carry sandbags....or they have routine physical injuries to such a degree that they are on some waiver.
I stood there in 1990 during a deployment and we had to put up a sandbag area near the deployment tent. I was the only chunky guy out of the ten guys and the only one that still had any energy left after hour one of the sandbag episode. I stood there in disbelief....several of these 160-pound guys were not in any shape to handle the sandbag routine.
I don’t think it’s just a female thing....it goes across the whole spectrum and involves guys as well.
