American chicks in combat

From The Washington Times' Inside The Ring column:

The Army is getting around the ban on mixed-sex support units embedding with combat units by pulling out female soldiers when fighting occurs. This fire-drill approach to running Forward Support Companies, known as FSCs, is one big reason why House Armed Services Committee Chairman Duncan Hunter, California Republican, is moving to have the ban restated in the pending 2006 defense authorization bill. The committee, in an amendment passed this week, added language that would require the Army to report any changes in combat rules for women, but backed off from an amendment to ban women from FSCs. The full House also must endorse the bill, along with the Senate, for Mr. Hunter's proposal to become law.

Females in combat will first destroy the US military and then the country. Yes, it is a symptom of a larger disease, but it is also a disease in and of itself.
