    This sounds good. Having served in the Army during VN, PT tests were mandatory and were tough. Things went south after Nixon eliminated the Draft and the “wimmen” took control. Socialist-Abortion Party Congressperson Patsy Schroeder-Colorado (go figure) led the charge.
    After an 8-year break in service, I went back in as an active Army Reservist and was appalled at what I saw. PT tests were sit-ups, push-ups, and a 3-mile run. Then I watched as two crack troopers went from PFC to WO1 on their backs. I reached my glass ceiling as an E-6 (97E40) and got the hell out before Desert Storm. Working in my second career as a schoolteacher, I have moved heaven and earth to dissuade my students from joining .mil. All wars are Bankster wars and America has shed enough blood for over 100 years to prop up the corrupt, syphilitic-thinking degenerates of Europa.

  2. That’s not quite what he said. One gender neutral standard and if any women can pass, great, if not, it is what it is.

    I’ve known women who could probably pass, and who had lightening reflexes to boot. But there are not many.

  3. As a former Navy pilot, I strongly agree with one standard. I was one of the few women entering the strike pipeline (carrier) in the 1980’s. The instructors were not sure I would be able to handle flying an A-4 with the flight controls disconnected from the hydraulics (a very rare emergency) so they made me go out and do it with a big gorilla in my back seat in case I couldn’t. No other pilots going through training had to do this; just me the female. I could do it, but just barely, so I started weightlifting, and at 65, I am still weightlifting.

    Draft horses, sled dogs; no difference between male and female as far as strength, but humans have a big difference for the most part. I always had to work much harder to be as strong as an average guy, but I wanted the job so I did. Most of the Navy women aviators I knew in fast movers were athletes that were extremely strong and fast. Aviation is more like drive by shootings than close quarters combat, unless you mess up and end up on the ground, so not that much strength is needed; brains and hand eye coordination are important.

    Women also have advantages in Naval Aviation training; since they have higher body fat they float better for the swim stuff, and also for the same reason they on average tend to have higher g tolerance. Each field is different, and ground combat is way different that aviation.
