kabud,

I spent 24 years in the Army and was a Basic Training Drill Sergeant for two and a Drill Sergeant Instructor for one. I trained males and females and can tell you with full conviction that you are full of crap!

Men and women must complete the same training to graduate basic. That includes all the marches where all trainees wear the same equipment regardless of sex. The only difference is the PT test where the standard for women is lower than that for men because of physiological differences and musculature.

Of the hundreds I trained, I never had a trainee of any sex who had a problem pulling a grenade pin or throwing the grenade.

As someone who served as a senior NCO in the first Gulf War, your contention that women pose a threat to combat readiness is just absurd and unfounded.

As far as health care, you may be right, after all women have to bring ALL the people into the world, that can get expensive!

That “sergeant” you supposedly interviewed must have some serious issues with women because everything he told you is a blatant lie.
