<p>“It’s scientifically proven that when speaking about physical attributes and excellence, a average man outshines a female.”</p>
<p>I really must check here more often—TWO good laughs in one week!!!</p>
<p>An “average” man or woman couldn’t even get into West Point or one of the other SA’s, and women have been in combat for a while now, both in the air and on the ground, regardless of any current “policy” about their official assignment (look for those policies to change as well.) I still remember my cadet telling me about women at WP who were smoking the “average” male cadet on the APFT, irregardless of whether you scored them as a man or woman. As far as WPmom bringing up the two WP cadets that fell in Iraq and Afganistan, you need to cut her some slack–your comments did more to hurt their cause and that of the other female WP’ers than any moral outrage you could stir up about her post.</p>
<p>" In the heat of battle a man only has 3 things: his brains, his arms, and his compassion."-----I know which one of those 3 attributes counts more in an officer as far as her troopers are concerned.</p>
<p>Hulk, it sounds like you have some growing up to do there, sir.</p>
