Make that “if the maximum enlistment age was raised to 65”. It’s too early for me to be playing on the computer.
I have a friend that married a gal that was in the Marines - she did desk duty for the officers. But I guess she still had all the drills in the morning and other stuff.
She was in some sort of fighting thing with five people to a team (two teams). She was the last one standing on her team fighting some buff guy. The guy had her in some sort of hold but she wouldn’t tap out. The guy kept applying more and more pressure to get her to quit but she wouldn’t.
She finally passed out. Crushed some vertebrate, broken ribs, etc. She now can’t do much of anything physical, is in constant pain, and was forced out on medical condition out of the Marines. Obviously she was mentally tough and has a fighting spirit, but the body can only take so much. And in most cases a woman’s body just can’t hold up to a fighting man’s body.
Like Dirty Harry said “A man’s got to know his limitations.”
physical profiling.....
What is a “Flexed Arm Hang”? a sorta-kinda pullup?
good....now women can get back to being women and men can get back to being men, and stop thinking that they can be mommies.....they can not....
