Well as Gulf War era, and DH is still in, here's my stand and I'll leave it at that since everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

 

I hated, no loathed, seeing less qualified less experienced MEN sent to the zone because they were men. And then was looked down upon because I HADN"T been in the hot zone. Geesh, damned if you do, damned if you don't.

 

I do agree that the personal ingrained need for some men to protect women, does and will forever get in the way of a combat zone. It cannot be helped. Should that exclude them from the duty? Is the overall risk of the mission too great? Sigh.....

 

Could we hack it? Hell ya.

 

Ask my Special Ops DH who crept up on my while I was ironing. He almost had to explain why he had a Rowenta embedded in his brain.

Or the scorpion that crept across my foot in the Loo last week. After he was stunned senseless by my screaching, he was promptly flushed to the sea.

Or the rattlesnake in the front lawn, who I moved with a broom stick to the woods.

 

:D

We fight hard, long and dirty. Well, the good ones do.
