This is about recognition and dignity.
If women don't want to fight, then, um. . . don't join the military.

At the same time, I had a soldier that was a male. Everytime the shooting started I knew right where he would be. INSIDE a truck "on the radio". I couldn't fire him because he liked to play "one card monty", so I was stuck with him.
Standing shoulder to shoulder is a matter of training and discipline, regardless of situation or gender. But, until females can maintain the same levels as males they should never have the chance to be shoulder to shoulder in the first place.

Killing has happened since the dawn of time.
Killing, happens at the most basic leveled organism, to animals to humans.
The idea that it is not natural, has been due to society, not human instinct.
But, history, past and recent within the Military and LE has shown that for the most part, most women are not capable to do what the male counterpart can.

Until we leave it to the Brits?
But yes I agree. As a Former soldier I feel we should have women snipers at the very least.. They'd be killer hot, or just killer.. War is hell they say..

What's already there needs to be reassessed.

That attitude won't have many women watching your back.
