Reeeee!!! from DOD trannies imminent

Rigger. In the rear with the gear. Fuckin REMF. Peace-time paratrooper.
Yes, parachute rigger, assigned to the heavy drop rigging section. We rigged vehicles and supplies for air drop. So yes, riggers are in the rear providing support nothing to be ashamed of.

Peace time, maybe but my time in service was Vietnam era although I was never in country and have never claimed to be. Basic training company just ahead of mine turned out to be the last group of replacements to go to Vietnam.

When I got out in '74 only 1% of the military were draftees, those prior had either got out or re-upped.

I'm not ashamed of my service and you want to call me a REMF but where do you get off thinking you're any better than me? What makes you better?

I think this conversation went off the rails, but it started because of your initial comment about how women should be allowed in combat arms, after giving your glowing review of their performance in law enforcement. I incorrectly assumed you had no military service, since anyone who has and has been exposed to women in uniform almost universally shares my opinion about how absolutely ridiculous it is to claim that women belong in those roles. Your mos tells us that you weren't doing a combat arms job anyways, so you did 2 years in a quartermaster unit. That's about as relevant to many, many of the folks here who spend decades in combat arms as apples are to hand grenades. Your assessment of women in those positions is unrealistic, for many previously explained reasons. Your position on justifying their use of force by their gender is just about the most ridiculous thing you could have said. You're justifying use of force on their behalf because they are physically inferior to men. You've created an oxymoron in your own line of thought. I for one apologize for alluding to your lack of service, but I didn't understand your timeline. You could not determine your own fate as a draftee, so that's not a reason that anyone should attack you.... but this is the bear pit, and you came here willingly and entered the thunderdome, so you don't get to cry foul now. That's what this is. In summary, many of the people in this conversation have decades in combat arms and special operations, (exponentially more than you'd likely believe), and they watched with their own eyes, as did I, the destruction of the military efficacy because people who didn't know what they were talking about were making the same claims you've made here. You're wrong, plain and simple, but it's OK to be wrong, it happens to all of us.

But this is exactly the type of support that women and homosexuals could do. Don't get me wrong, this is vital work that the military could not possibly do without. Very much needed. This is the place for those that should not be front line infantry combat. Still absolutely no place for trannies though, anywhere. The mental disease is disqualifying

I'm not crying foul, I just expressed my personal opinion and experience. I said if someone, gender or sexual orientation didn't matter, was willing to do the job than I didn't have a problem with it.

You say that women don't belong in combat roles but I think history and even current events may prove you wrong. It is my understanding the Russia had a good number of women snipers involved in many major battles. You might want to look at the number of women in the Israeli military as well and many are not in support positions.

Throughout history women have fought beside men. I'm not saying that all will or should but many have. Simply saying that anyone could not or should not be allowed pursue a job in law enforcement or the military if that is their desire and they are willing to do the job is simply wrong in my opion.
