I saw this article in the NY Times. A good read.
Now at Fort Hood, Tex., Sergeant Sellers doesn’t say that all women should want to join the infantry or other combat-specific jobs. But she does think they should have a fair opportunity to participate in all aspects of Army service.
“There are no special circumstances. You’re there to perform a job, the same job as a man,” she said. “Some women can do it. Some women can’t, even if they think they can. If you’re going to run with the big boys, you have to hold it to their standard.
“I don’t know how many women would try,” to join the infantry, if it opened to women, she continued. “Some. If they really knew what they were getting into, probably not a lot.”
At least she seems to have enjoyed her experience working with an infantry company in the field.
