I hear ya. Be patient. It’ll happen and it’ll work well. It may just take sometime. This really is kind of revolutionary. All those countries that have used women in the past, usually did so out of desperate national need, it had nothing to do with integration and equality (i.e. the Russians and Israelis). Even then…

Because I’ve done buddy runs and firemen carries, in full kit, with every guy in the company.
You’re not getting it. It’s has nothing to do with one person’s, or a group of people’s actions. It’s so much bigger than that.
What are you talking about? We routinely practice casevac from the field to Medbird, HMMWV, Stryker, whatever. Men routinely firemen carry a buddy plus his gear...
There’s some other things that need to be dealt with. Mainly copious amounts of training with those men. If they just rolled new females into say, an infantry unit, like they do with males after graduation/schools/whatev.
Meeting these physical and testing standards is just the tip of the ice berg. I have no issue with women completing these schools so long as standards don’t change.
Wut?
I slept with a multitude of hammered women in college. Alot of women had sex with me while I was hammered in college.
Cheers Tyler.
Yeah, fearing the loss of a less advanced Predator could compromise higher-end platforms is literally the only thing I can think of.
You couldn’t possibly be a bigger tool. “I was always against the Afghanistan invasion!” Really, you were always against the invasion that the vast majority of the country and world still feels is justified? Not everybody else followed us into Iraq. Everyone did follow us into Afghanistan.
Dude I literally don’t even know where to start with you. I’m dumbfounded. Honestly.
That, very well might be, the most retarded thing I’ve ever seen on the internet. Well done...
I’m not even saying we need to maintain a parts supply or any of that. You can pretty much cut the small amounts of cash dedicated to maintaining them and still store them in a way that will keep me useable (with a little refresh) if we ever have to dip that deeply into the pool.
Sure was. Paulus specifically mentions the extra hurdle it caused his doomed 6th Army multiple times in wires back to the Wolf’s Lair and Berlin.
That surely would cost more than they’re worth. That being said, there is no reason not to keep them around. Tossing them out just for the sake of tossing them out is moronic.
This is dumb. There is absolutely zero reason (that I can see) to toss these out. I have no issue with them standing the Predator down operationally, but that doesn’t mean they have to get rid of them. Give them to someone like the Border Patrol or Coast Guard. There are absolute tons of government agencies, or…
Yep. Exact weapon capabilities are still a bit shrouded. Armor composition and active defense capabilities even more so.
In all honesty he does a really good job being upfront. The problem is criticizing budget and procurement stuff is a really slippery slope. Some of it is completely warranted (F-35, LCS), but much of it isn’t. Many of those decisions are made because they’re privy to exacting enemy capabilities, and our own, that…
