This is an interesting video. If the data/facts identified are correct it clearly points to a flawed system that puts the health of women at risk and the combat viability of the units in question. I have never been a supporter of women having the option of picking combat arms and men do not. I do not support lowering the standards and do no think making combat service optional for the small number of women that can qualify offsets the negative impact to the unit.

I am sure there will be folks that disagree but the Israeli experience speaks volumes. This in no way is a suggestion that women cannot excel in service to our country or to ignore the fact many have fought bravely. Most women in "technology enabled" jobs like pilots do very well. Anyway, provided for your SA.
