Female Ranger School student dropped for pregnancy

Yeah, believe that.

Believe what? What your link specifically said about 180 days? Or maybe the fact that she had to go through not only Basic and AIT but also other schools prior to reaching Mountain Phase (where the pregnancy was found) to be a ranger? You are the one denying facts here.

Believe you're right. It's sarcasm.

So, then you have no real argument against what I posted, you just don't know how to say you are wrong, got it. Because you provided no evidence at all to counter what I posted.

You provided a link to something that doesn't apply since not only did this woman get pregnant almost certainly after that 6 month window that would put her out under "Chapter 11: Entry Level Separation" (which is spelled out very specifically in the link you provided), but most cases where someone gets a sunburn or other "preventable" illnesses/injuries also occur after that point.

I'm not wrong. Whether you like it, or not is irrelevant.

The whole point of the thread was to point out the stupidity that's been allowed to infiltrate my Army and to point out that doing business this way is going to get soldiers killed. The standards have been lowered to accomadate female soldiers and that's a fact that can't be refuted.

You are wrong. She would not/could not be put out under a Chapter 11. Nor could anyone with a sunburn even be separated for that. You brought up a Chapter 11, which does not apply for any situation mentioned in this thread.

There is no fact to what you have been saying. Standards need to be evaluated for effectiveness in the first place, considering how long we have been living under the failed belief that just because something weighs a ton we need to ensure soldiers/Sailors can carry it and never consider actually changing the design to decrease the need for it to weigh that much. There is more to it as well.

I'm absolutely right. This soldier is proof that the standards have been lowered to accomadate females. Soldiers will die because of it.

Getting pregnant is not lowering any standards. The two are not related. And soldiers have not been put out of the military for getting a sunburn or hurt in a way they can recover from. If you disagree, provide evidence otherwise.

Maybe you need to take a “burst of six?”

Huh? :lamo

Many moons ago when a soldier re-upped, it was said that he had taken a burst of three/six or however many years the contract was for. Not your grandaddy’s Army anymore........

It's hilarious how many times his own links prove him wrong. You would think that by this time he would have at least learned to read his own links.

I know it's too much to ask that he stop posting on things he has no real experience with. Like the military. But reading your own links. Come on that's not that hard.
 
Strikes me as this is a COVER STORY.


The politically correct new army has been trying to get a woman through special operations training of some sort for years.
Once again a woman failed the physical grade but the army is laying it off to pregnancy.

On the other hand, if the woman is actually pregnant, it doesn't take a great deal of psychoanalysis to figure out she set herself up to fail. She had months of notice of when she was to attend Ranger school. Birth control pills are free in the army.
