[QUOTE="texan, post: 1084688, member: 38206"] [B]Good point BrownArmy. But do female and male police officers spend 1 year to 4 years together 24 hours each day, bathing, eating, training, sleeping etc? Last post from me on this subject, as I seem like one of the nay sayers. There is a comradery and cohesivness in combat units. Men act differently with and around women. I lived it on both sides 24 hours, months and months at a time. One side is US Army all male unit, and US Army mixed units. The Outstanding Mod Mr. Jones has his Marine background. He seems open to it. To me, for a women to make it and be a Marine, they are G.I. Janes to begin with. Some, and more than a few of the women that make it through US Army basic and AIT were not G.I. Janes. When I speak of G.I. Janes I refer to the 10 to 20 per cent of women that are warriors and strong, and can kick your butt, as portrayed by Demi Moore in the movie. I also have seen men that barely made it through training and are a burden to the unit. So I say I am not for it. Guess I am a dinosaur.
