Some can, some can't...I guarantee you the one in the photo will scream like a little girl and run, unlike the shemales they didn't take a picture of. I remember, with clarity, a SPC Francine (Frankie) Colbert who would kick half the grunts asses if they looked at her wrong wanting to go on patrol in Baghdad. They wouldn't let her and rumor has it she kicked her platoon sergeant's ass when he told her no. She was one of the support troops.

It is not enough to send our sons and fathers to die in Afganisnam, we also now send our daughters and mothers. Fascist scum, the US government.

The American female troops are great and beautiful fighters but it is bad idea to send them fighting the barbarian women hating Islamic terrorists who will not treat them right once one American female troops will fall in their hands.
The female US troops are facing much higher risk for their lives than male troops in area where radical Islamic terrorists would not follow the laws of the Geneva convention and will rape them before killing them. It is time to keep our female troops away from brutal and savage Islamic terrorists that despise women and treats their own women like slaves of men according to the Quran.

if you look on this page you will see that combat roles are closed to women ,so the liberal media is feeding us lies as usual.

women are also barred form combat by an act of congress....it's not discrimination....it's common sense.

the radical femminists and marxists see no distinction between the roles of men and women as evidenced by their push for women in roles that have been exclusively male since the dawn of civilization.

this is not just a question of ability....but of morality,which is badly lacking in the western world now ,and a price will be paid for it.

women are in combat zones now because in a terrorist country the combat zone is EVERYWHERE!
but they are NOT in combat roles!

Firstly, women join the military because of a thing called penis envy in the first place.

Women won't be able to combat for the same reason women cry on sit down jobs and kill work ethic..

You know women supervisors; statistics prove that even women prefer male supervisors. So can you imagine panicking and you have this obnoxious 'takes self too serious' female sergeant. Or even one that is freaking out. Your sergeant is supposed to calm your ass down(have a sense of humor for instance and not just be capable of giggling) and make the right call.. not the other way around.

She might probably make your ass walk with some Stay Free incase she runs out..

I'm curious though. If the boys in combat might start battling for the cute girls attention instead of stayin focus. I wonder if the taliban might get lost by seeing some boobs. I watched documentaries of D-Day and such. And I'm telling you it would suck if women were involved.

Stick to nursing.. you know?

If a woman is tortured she would tell everything. It's just like how you get to bed a girl; just spin her head.

Finally, I see it everyday that a woman that studied so hard in these times of 'women do better in school than men', and then get hire infront of a man whom wants to feed a family time and time again because she is 22 and has a nice rack. I wonder if the military would come to the point where women are showered with honers in front of men because they train 10X harder just like their emotionally driven tendancy/insecurity to study 10X harder than men just so they can say women are doing better than math in math and sciences now; then we have another female doctor become a family doctor.

For the record I do feel bad about what I just said.

How adorable! You pick a cut little girl to represent all the military bs the press is dealing today. I am female, I served for 30 years, retired 2 months ago. While in Iraq in 2008 men and women were using the same bathrooms all the time. I never recieved an assignment during my 6 months. I was told that if anything happened to me he (the Commander) wouldn't be able to explain it to my husband. The nearest restroom was half a mile from my SHUE. When I brought this to the attention of the Army I was moved from the SHUE into a tent with no lock on the door in the middle of an Army tent city. I took charge of myself and moved into the Air Force village where I had security. I am now retired from the cult known as the American military. Women in combat roles are those protecting themselves from the men they are stationed with. The American military over seas runs amuck and the men do as they please. Women need to know before they go that the rules don't apply and they better be able to say NO and take care of themselves. I could say more but no one is listening and no one cares. I never felt threatened by the people of Iraq or anyone else except the American military.

I call bullshit on you...I'm retired from the Army myself. A couple of factoids for you, for the next time you want to lie.

1. If you did 30 years, you were either a CSM handpicked by DA to be allowed to do 30, or an O-6, CW5, or a General Officer.'ou don;t write well enough to be any of the three, and none of the three would talk bad about the military.

2. A CSM, Colonel, CW5 or (let alone) a General Officer would NOT be sleeping in a tent. EVER.

3. They are called CHU's; for Containerized Housing Unit. Not SHUE's.

4. Have a great day.

I wouldn't know the answer to that Tes. Ask yourself as Germany did that and worse to 6 million Jews!

Patti, this is BS. I never saw one woman mistreated when I was overseas. What was the matter? Was you so ugly that no one would take you out and you are trying to get revenge by running the troops down? Some patriot you are.

Yes, it happens in the military like it happens in the civilian world and it is very wrong. "Patti" is full of crap though. Anybody who was ever in the Army, or fighting one of our lovely wars would know "she" is.

Thanks for the correction on the housing name. I was never sure. As for the rest of it you're full of crap. I did 10 years each; Active Duty, Reserve, and Guard. The fact that you're Ex-Army tells me you're limited. Don't tell me I didn't do 30 years. And I did appreciate the military for what it is supposed to be, not for what it has become. And one doesn't have to be an Officer or have special permission to stay in for 30 years. It happens all the time.

I wasn't Army. I was Air Force. And it happened like I said it did. This is part of the problem. No one wants to admit or even talk about the assaults and rapes taking place. You can choose to believe anything you want to but I don't lie. You need to read up.

The fact that you didn't see it doesn't mean it didn't happen. Can you honestly say that you saw everything that was happening? Why would I have to be ugly? And why would I be looking for someone to "take me out"? Where would we go? To the Greenbean? Dating in the desert is against G0-1 remember? Do you think only ugly women get raped or mistreated? Typical man.

Patti, I server 4 years in the Air Force and never saw any of this. One year of this four years was in combat. I don't doubt that there are random cases that happen but you're exagerating and lying about how often it happens.

Confusion reigns supreme today, especially when dealing with financial matters.

It certainly isn't the day for parting with large sums of money because the chances of something going wrong are very high.
