For female soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan, experience on the ground is outpacing official military policy.

  • I have no issues with women in the military and I believe they can probably perform just like any male soldier. But as Sgt. Lachance put it (1:27) , we all know damn well what would happen to any woman captured by the enemy. This is the only reason why I would prefer not to see them exposed to combat.

  • @nodmessenger hahaha what the fuck ??? hahah how long have i been in tthe chinese army??? your a joke little fucker ....your not making a point ...i know what im saying i study Military logistics i hear ALOT OF SHIT .....so shut the fuck up you little bitch

  • America supports its brave combat troops whever they are. The American female combat is as tough, resourceful and brave as it comes. She can hold up entire batallions of the enemy, just like "Manila" John Basilone did, or Alvin York. The American tigress can flatten the enemy with tank, flame thrower or bowie knife. 

  • @nodmessenger But they can be attached to combat units from non-combat trades and do the same job via a military loop hole? Totally logical. Look up Katie Nesbitts, go to the sun.co.uk website.

  • @countrygirl4lifee I think your very wrong. Arguably men and women biologically different, both physically and mentally as well. I have no problem with women in the military but i think they should only be rear echelon. Women can be warriors but not in large numbers, its never happen and its not an idea you can force on someone just because its not logical. Iraq there was a female who was in a convoy that was ambushed and captured. They broke her bones and raped her, repeatedly.

  • @pjyg51241 Your so fucking stupid, you know nothing. How long you been in the chinese army? how long you been in the us army?

  • are army is so fuckin weak compared to south korea and china ....

  • @axelmixer2 Sexist much?

  • @axelmixer2 Stay off YT and don't behave like an idiot!

  • Stay in the kitchen.

  • All this equal talk is nonsense. Yes, it is scientifically proven men can build muscle faster than women. Yes that mens most men can probably lift more than women but it doesn't mean they can do the job better. There has been many times I've taken extra weight from buddy who fell out during a march or I've pulled double shifts in the harness humping some 200lbs+ sled through Canada's rough winter terrain. It's not all black and white ladies and gentlemen. There's no gender in uniform. HUA.
