Quote from: Vulhala on May 13, 2014, 01:07:03 AMQuote from: Crazy Rich on May 13, 2014, 01:03:10 AMI think the standards should remain unchanged. I believe gender shouldn't be an influencing factor, all those standards are there to make sure you're best prepared as possible for combat situations. If you make it you make it, if you don't you don't. The standards shouldn't be compromised over gender, because then your compromising your team when your training is put to the test in the real deal. I say team because one thing I learned in my "going to be a soldier one day" days is that "Teams survive, individuals die", meaning it's not just about yourself but the men and women you serve beside and being effective as a whole.This. All day. Political correctness and war have no place in the same discussion.
