		<description><![CDATA[I  am a woman physician and served in the US Army Medical Corps in the &#039;80&#039;s with rank of Lieutenant Colonel. 
I served in Germany alongside women Army nurses, technicians, and others,. We were expected to succeed in use  
of guns, chemical warfare  equipment, physical fitness tests, and capability demonstration  by grading on our jobs.  
It was just fine. 
But now, I cannot describe adequately my anger at this equality of women in combat measure.. It goes against all reason, all facts as to the comparative strengths of men and women, all facts of emotional reactions between men and women which are enhanced by the tensions of battle conditions. I have learned (from T.V.police dramas!) that there must be NO romantic relationship between the police officer and his on-duty partner . The reason is clear. In tense or crisis conditions, concern for the partner can disturb the complete concentration required for the mission. The same would apply under harsh battle conditions. All of the reasons given in the above article are extremely pertinent and point to this new condition as another piece of &quot;political correctness&quot; - to put it mildly, unthinking, irrational --and to put it more clearly -- very 
unintelligent, serving the present  US Administration&#039;s ideology and not the facts of differential physical capability of the sexes, and the consequences thereof . The defense of the United States and its interests abroad are de facto ignored, much to the disservice of both the US itself, and to the interests of many foreign nations who fighting bravely, or under enemy occupation, in WWI and WWII were aided, strengthened and encouraged by the US entry into bitter conflicts which saved the world from Adolph Hitler&#039;s promised Third (Thousand Year) Reich.

		<description><![CDATA[You should note that the people who first pushed for women in the military were civilian feminists who had no military experience.  This includes the likes of Congresswoman Pat Schroeder.  Senior military men with WWII, Korea and Vietnam experience were all against it, so your argument is illogical.  You might also want to check out the numerous military men who support CMR.  Given that the Joint Chiefs have been wrong so often on so many purely military matters, they have no credibility on this issue, and neither do you. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Are you a man or a woman? 
Did you serve in a combat zone? 
Did you serve in a combat zone with women? 
In what way ALL of the arguments invalid? 
Why did the Joint Chiefs of Staff never before - for decades - come up with a brilliant idea like this? Did it take the community organizer with zero experience in anything but smoking pot and hanging around communists to inspire such leadership in them - after all those years? 
Don&#039;t hold back. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What a load of BS. Name yourselves, so called &quot;Center for Military Readiness&quot;. Has any one member of your *civilian* club ever served in a combat zone in the military? I&#039;m retired from active duty after 24 1/2 years, and your arguments are all invalid. The Joint Chiefs and the SECDEF clearly know WAY more than you do, you biased, uninformed, inexperienced liars. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Another thing to consider:  Women will not volunteer for an army that forces them into combat.  The women who are already in the army will not re-up if faced with being forced into combat.  The women who do make it into combat will be few and the men will harrass and bargain and coerce them.  Women are, now, using pregnancy to get out of hot zones.  Maybe this is some more Democratic trickery; while they say they intend one thinh, they intend another. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We have one of the best trained militaries in the world.  We are out there training the military of Iraq and Afghanistan and someday they will come back to bite us in the ass, but to put a woman out there on the front lines with a man, two things are going to happen. (1) We are either going to lower our standard of training for both the men and women or (2) we will not raise the standard of training for the women and that will be a tragedy for both.  I would not want my husband, son, grandson to be out on the frontlines and being attached by Muslim Jihadists or anyother army for that matter, having shells coming in around me, my men being killed and injured and having to depend on a &quot;Demi Moore&quot; G.I. Jane to get my ass out of the killing field.  There is not way that any woman could life a 180+ injured man without putting the rest of the  
Company at risk.  The first time women start coming home from the Killing Fields all blown to pieces and put in boxes sent back to their husbands, fathers, children this country will go ballistic,  There is a place for women in the Military but it is not out there on the Front Lines. 
We have pilots, that&#039;s great, nurses, doctors, support, but a woman is open to all kinds of, how should I say this &quot;unfortunate&quot; assaults when she is put in the middle of a group of men who are out to kill, and that&#039;s what war is all about.  Do we want these women coming home and caring for their little one&#039;s?  I don&#039;t think so.  I was always active and athletic when I was growing up and I was in H.S. in the 1950&#039;s and always wanted to be a fighter pilot but that was not feasible then.  WE have them now flying in the Military, but on the front lines NO.  Mary711 ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thank you Ms. Donnelly, but I think you missed my point.  Standards have already been lowered in all other areas and this needs to be brought public because it is as much of a problem for branches of services other than ground combat.  It is illogical to say that women are performing well - thereby implying they have met equal and unchanged subjects - in these other areas, or to say that direct ground combat is so special that it alone should be spared the changes that have affected other areas of the military.  You can only win this argument by showing that the problems that you have correctly outlined for the DCG units have already weakened those other areas of the military that have already been gender-normed. ]]></description>

John Wayne once punched out his very large buddy Ward Bond-through a solid wood door. Show me a woman who can do that and your  idiotic comparison between men who don&#039;t serve and women who do serve will still be idiotic. Just because wussies like Obama have never been man enough to serve doesn&#039;t mean we need more Shannon Faulkners. Grrl power is strictly for comic books, Hollywood, special needs cases like you and other eunuchs. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hello Admiral, 
 
You are correct about the need to address gender-normed scoring and training programs that are inconsistent with total&quot; equality&quot; in direct ground combat (DGC) units.  Take a look at differences in the male and female obstacle courses at the Officer Candidate Course at Quantico.      In these photos, you can see bars twelve inches lower on the female side and special &quot;assists&quot; to help in climbing the red walls.  &lt;a href=&quot;http://cmrlink.org/data/sites/85/CMRDocuments/QuanticoOCS-ObstacleCourse.pdf&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://cmrlink.org/data/sites/85/CMRDocuments/Qua...&lt;/a&gt;  If combat exemptions are to be dropped, all forms of training should be made equal, but for seven reasons listed on the second article posted on our website, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.cmrlink.org,&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;www.cmrlink.org,&lt;/a&gt; that will not happen.  Best, Elaine Donnelly ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[IMO, placing women into front line combat roles is another, massive,  leftist,  social engineering mistake. 
As previously mentioned.  Women can do many things equal to, and better than men, but NOT in this instant. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ladies!  Welcome to the Infantry!  We know you&#039;ve experienced combat as pilots, military police, truck drivers and many other non-combat arms soldiers have been subject to enemy fire.  What you have not done is live and fight in the field for sustained periods of time humping a combat load of 75 pounds or more including ruck sack, ammunition, water, food, weapon, helmet, body armor day in and day out for weeks at a time.  There are no showers, no privacy, no clean clothes, only dirt, sweat, and the constant threat of close combat with a brutal, unforgiving enemy.  Infantry combat is not like a video game - as Prince Harry said describing his war in the cock-pit of an AH-64 attack helicopter.  It&#039;s not like serving as a gunner on VIP vehicle or flying a high performance jet aircraft.  Your home is in the field, living with what you can carry on your back in the heat, cold, mud, dust, snow, and rain.  Take a look at videos of Marine and Army Infantry in combat in Iraq and Afghanistan.  While you are at it watch The Vietnam War in HD. Pay attention to the grunts.  Sustained Infantry combat operations are very tough physically and mentally.  Many men can&#039;t hack it and virtually all women are not physically capable of combat service in the Infantry.  There is a reason why there are no female players in the NFL and women do not complete against men in the Olympics.  For the few that meet the same standards required of men, congratulations.  However, if standards are lowered, the butcher&#8217;s bill will inevitably come due in Infantry combat.  Be careful what you wish for.  ]]></description>
