No. If the draft comes back, its bad. It wouldn't be a time to be politically correct. Letting women sign up for the draft sounds like the right thing to do, when its not needed. But if a war was bad enough to draft, lives are being lost quick. Would the PC people be ready to bury hundreds or thousands of dead 18 year girls? I wouldnt be ready. My son can go, not my daughter.

But they just can't have it both ways---either they can be totally equal or not. No one wants to see 18 year olds, male or female, drafted anymore but what's fair is fair.

I say let the women fight the next wars by themselves----- us guys haven't been able to win one since WWII (through no fault of our own). --its their turn to try.

These two women have gone further than most men in military training. I bet there are a lot more who could do it too.
