Rangers Lead The Way- Gayle Lemmon wrote a good book about Ahley White, she wanted to be the best of the best and that is why she signed up for CST or (Cultural Support Teams) Unfortunately she ended up being killed in action- Afghanistan- It's admirable to have female warriors that are willing to sacrifice everything to be part of the American War Machine- They were in some serious shape, Ashley was doing 30 pull ups, they all had great endurance as well. In the olden days girls were supposed to do only girlie push ups which meant they were allowed to use their knees. Stating that women shouldn't be allowed to serve in war is like what they used to say in the rooms that women couldn't be alcoholics. That is why when the Big Book was initially written it was geared toward all male. Times have changed, if a woman wants to be attached to the warriors out in the field in a way that wouldn't be a liability then they should expand their program. Whether it's intel gathering or just being on the front lines a girl would be able to carry a wounded warrior to safety. Obviously not all of them would be able to do this but the ones that can should be allowed to compete for the slots. Not that many people in general want to volunteer for the military but the ones that do should be given the chance to prove their mettle without lowering the standards. I had my doubts when I watched GI Jane and I know that movie was fiction based but today women are in extremely good shape both mentally and physically. I am referring to Cross Fit elite Olympic standard type athletes that would be able to take out over 95% of the men in almost all of the pft tests scores. Shooting, running, push ups, pull ups, sit ups and swimming- the CST teams should recruit at Cross Fit Games. If a girl wants to prove that she is the best of the best their would be positive results going in as back door recruiters for the CST teams at either the Cross Fit athletes, Spartan games or with the UFC girls.
