To quote the 1992 Government study on gender integration in the armed forces...
A military unit at maximum combat effectiveness is a military unit least likely to suffer casualties. Winning in war is often only a matter of inches, and unnecessary distraction or any dilution of the combat effectiveness puts the mission and lives in jeopardy.

Risking the lives of a military unit in combat to provide career opportunities or accommodate the personal desires or interests of an individual, or group of individuals, is more than bad military judgment. It is morally wrong.

I personally believe that women shouldn't be allowed in combat roles. There's going to be an uproar when one get captured and ganged raped and murdered. Some women can live up to the same standards as men but the fact of the matter is the majority can't.

Don't be ridiculous.
Throughout human history, women warriors have proved their worth.

Currently, dozens of nations around the world have women in combat roles right now.
Including countries like Canada that incontrovertibly proved women can hack frontline combat just as good as men in the Afghan War.

If dumb@ss Americans want to sit around making fools of themselves pretending women don't belong in combat, well, there's a world full of people ready to point and laugh at those Yankee retards shaming themselves, their flag and their nation with their backward chauvinistic beliefs.

Let's see now - 6,000 years of military history says YES all male combat teams work.

Rather than just not allowing women, they should just hold them to the exact same physical standards as men.

Recent events may seem to indicate that.
