Hmmm, always had a hard time with this one. I really respect women that want to serve and I think they should get the same oportunities as men, as long as their presence doesn't cause a safety problem for the rest of the unit. Humping a 100lbs of gear in a pack is hard, so is carrying out your buddy when he gets hit, can they do it? I am a big guy and I would want to know that my buddy can sling my 200 plus lb bleedin ass over her shoulder and get me safe. Women have all the courage as men do, all the patriotism and some of them got the same balls. But how many have the physical capabilities? Same with firefighters and to some extent cops. Yea they all can do some of the jobs, some can do most of the jobs, but how many can do all the jobs?
