Tsk-tsk ... this doesn't lend well to the social experiment of women in combat!

One of the main reasons why they should not be in combat as grunts.

It's a new day & age.
During my 6 1/2 years in the Marines the mixing of men & women just did not happen.
In boot camp I HEARD WM's from a distance, but never saw one up close.
Now I see male & female recruits training together.
In Vietnam they certainly were not in combat nor anywhere near zones of extreme danger (to the best of my knowledge...correct me if I'm wrong).
I remember at various times during my enlistment of being told "....if the Marine Corps wanted you to have a wife, they would have issued you one !!...."
Nowadays, marrage must be a non-issue.
You can't stop chemistry !!
