i am out, i dont set anything nor have my own section anymore.
but, more then likely you be above 3 of my old marines.. damn fat bodies... π
also i was a straight arrow NCO in the marines.. which meant i didnt curse or yell/talk down to my men.
they were grown men/women and marines and earned the right to be spoken as such.
that also meant i did my best to obey regulations even when it would hamper me so i would respect even the enemy and his rights.
i know you aint referring to me... π
a lot of the females in the marines were mostly office mos.. umm.. admin also supply..
anyways..... i blame her:

Pump the brakes.
You don't know how you'd react in a time of high stress, such as during a firefight or during a complex, IED-Small Arms ambush.
I've served with females and in the scenarios I mentioned above, out of all of them I think I can remember 2 that could "handle" it. The rest either hunkered down and "Jessica Lynch'd" or they got crazy and belligerent on the radio.
Don't speculate on how emotionally tough you are until you sign the dotted line, sweat and bleed through the training, and then go overseas and prove yourself.
No man, or woman, can claim they'll be a "Randall Shughart" (google him) when it comes time to meet Islam's finest on those eastern battlefields.

I think you're a pretty cool guy man, but don't diss the Army. Although idiots join every branch, and there are idiots in life you shouldn't base the military off of people who aren't intelligent. I like to believe I am very intelligent, and I happened to got a 98 on my ASVABS. I served my country with pride and because I wanted to not because I was forced. Had certain things not happened I would still be doing so proudly. I might still go back to being a Ranger. I haven't decided. If my brother transfers to 18 Series I might go back and do an 18 X Ray contract. But anyways what I'm trying to say is just show some respect for the guys who actually have been through hell and back.
