Soldiers who want to breastfeed upon return to duty

At this point I think we are finished. I sent the below letter to Senators and my Comgressman to mark the passing of our armed forces.

LETTER SENT TO MY COGRESSMAN AND ALL SENATORS
The Tragedy of Women in Combat

Ash Carter’s announcement demonstrates this Administration’s attachment to a political ideology fueled by arrogance and premeditated ignorance. Any long period of study and vigorous debate has been among those mutually supportive creatures that have metastasized throughout the military to serve a social agenda bringing future needless devastation. Most of the points I highlight about women in combat arose first when the decision was made to do away with DADT. A lot of good men are going to have to die in years to come to cover up this disaster.

This tragedy of women in combat provides another reason I now always council men to never enter the armed forces. Social engineering that amalgamates feminist ideals everywhere has now become the over arching imperative to which all operational capabilities must submit.

However, combat operations too often demand unpredictably and unimaginably exhausting brutality to achieve victory. Therefore, only the highest physical abilities and most severe restrictions on human emotions and behaviors can foster the required high morale, good order and discipline, and unit cohesion required.

Human sexuality simply cannot intrude into this sub-culture where only those displaying the greatest savagery and endurance can hope to win. Resorting to war for national defense entails the ultimate Olympics of conflict occurring at the bleeding edge of existence where the unbelievable becomes the possible. Here there is much less excuse for merging men and women into these struggles than exists for the athletic competitions held every four years.

Combat forms personnel into small, rigid, task oriented units. These people continuously face extraordinary stress punctuated by killing other humans. At the point of collision, they undertake actions requiring sacrificial, primitive and intimate actions. Such environments are inherently chaotic, barbaric, and brittle. They can be overcome only by a totalitarian leadership and narrow focus unimaginable for those who see any opportunity for the social alchemy popular in civilian life.

The regimental combat teams for infantry, mechanized and armored units are now the playthings of bureaucrats committed to equal opportunity and affirmative action. They are dismissive of warriors enduring the brutal carnage imperative for victory. Institutional memories no longer exist for fighting ferocious, shrewd enemies such as the Germans, Japanese, Chinese, and North Vietnamese, who utilized a full array of modern weapons. If one notes the ribbons on any senior officer’s uniform, they show they fought only Arabs the Israelis beat three times at 20 to 1 odds. Such people now question the necessity for high standards which do not obfuscate or allow inferior female performance.

Women not only do not belong at the pointy end of the spear, but should not be holding it to the extent the combat arms must depend on their savagery. As this tragedy unfolds I will remember the quote that, “Men sleep peacefully in their beds at night because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf”.

The new ARmy under progressives in the Obamanation.

The military is not for fighting wars. It is a social change program. It is to spread benefits to homosexuals, transgenders, minorities, illegal aliens, and Muslims.

Everyone will be welcome to join. Sign up, make it through 2 weeks of boot camp with endless pink cards to give to the DDI. Then, sign up for every social benefits program. Sign up for your gender reassignment surgery, have the tax payers pay for it, all the while be on light duty sitting around an office making sure your lactating burka clad Muslim C.O. gets proper time off for 5 times a day prayer.

I remember the halcyon days of GIs being the property of the US government, and you could not get married without permission, The females could not become pregnant and remain in the service, they would be mustered out.

Pappy, that’s one of the most depressing things I’ve ever read - almost as depressing as SecNav ordering the Marine Corps to remove the suffix “man” from every MOS description. The absurdity has almost reached the point of total detachment from reality, the point of no return. If not stopped, it will end in collapse.

If the Muzzies don’t attack us while we are under this memo they will have missed their best chance ever. This memo is proof our CiC is a supporter of Islam.

We need more breasts in combat ... so the men will remember what they’re fighting for.

What about all the male “goldbricks” who announce, “Hey Sarge, I ‘identify’ as a lactating female. I need a break of at least 30min every two hours. I’m having a really hard time ‘expressing’ my milk!”

I was at a flea market a couple of years ago and saw an army issue pair of digital camouflage BDU maternity pants with the elastic for the enlarged stomach; I understand how we lost in Iraq & Afghanistan.

The SINGULAR REASON for the federal government is to DEFEND the USA. And they have turned our military into a social experiment. We could easily lose WW3 while our soldiers are breast feeding.

“We need more breasts in combat ... so the men will remember what they are fighting for.”

In Vietnam that was provided for us by Playboy magazine.

I was forced to retire in 2011. Dragged kicking & screaming into Fort Living Room. The Army was my life. But the PC madness was already beginning. Then faggies in uniform getting “married”, now this.

God help this nation! If Ted Cruz is elected, He just might have done so.

CRUZ or lose in 2016!

All vets and active duty - the latest Pentagon guidance to ensure the military as we vets knew it is “fundamentally transformed.”

Having been there, reality is that pregnant mothers do injure the mission in the field. First, they get deferments from duty or they get discharged. Either way they leave an empty slot that has to be filled by others working huge hours. Second, any activity that isn’t mission focused takes time away from the mission. Third, babies can’t be brought on military operations, so separation anxiety severely affects deployed mothers.

It’s a mistake. Logic says so.
