>Steam picked up for Army planners to create a new test around the time when combat arms jobs such as the infantry and cavalry were opened to women in 2015. The force initially sought to create a gender-neutral test and attempted to juggle dueling goals of creating a more inclusive force while also creating a fitter force.
>But damning findings from Rand Corp. and concerns over the retention and recruitment of women crushed that ambition. Researchers at Rand found that only 52% of enlisted active-duty women were able to pass the original design for the ACFT, compared to 92% of men in their congressionally mandated study released Wednesday. Only 42% of women in the National Guard and 41% in the Reserve could pass.
Women already had lower PT standards than men did, this is just getting ridiculous.

While I whole heartedly disagree with sending women into battle, if we have to witness entire battalions of them getting massacred, captured and or raped for these people to come to their senses then so be it

2 more years, 2 months 2 weeks . mark my words

Emmas two Moms can qualify now X'D
James Barnes
I would sincerely rather work with someone who openly called me slurs than with someone insisted that the standards had to be lowered for everyone because YOUR PEOPLE can't be expected to keep up. At least the openly hateful guy knows where he stands.

Javelins are a propaganda meme that don't take out a T-90.
Robert Thompson
you highlighted the wrong sentence...the one that should be emphasized is that the test no longer prepares people for combat. every enlisted knows women have a different standard and are a joke already.
Josiah Bailey
If you identify as a woman do they put you in a woman's barracks? That shit would be hilarious. I knew a woman in the service and she said it's sort of a fuckfest out there.

Canada is in a lot of trouble too but can only benefit by the death of zog.

considering russia just lost 40k soldiers in ukraine and getting btfo in counterattacks they're not a threat any longer for the us(or nato). china of course still haven't been proven but i would assume they suck even more than russia because they just copycat them
so even though US going down the drain it will impolode from within, no outside source can collapse it

I guess you're not really a human..more closely related to a virus.
Benjamin Cruz
No, it's not separated. Yes, it is a fuckfest with these girls. I wouldn't get into a relationship with any woman that's are enlisted or are going to. Some are fucking hot though
Colton Powell
…and thats a good thing!

The joke is that the previous owner of the store is called Chuck so if you replace "Sneed" with "Chuck" you get "Chuck's Feed & Seed".

Too much. The ACFT is six events, involving equipment: hex bars, weights, kettlebells, medicine balls, pull-up bars, measuring tape/point markers, stopwatch, and an hour or two of prep time. The old test required a stopwatch and either a track or someone with a phone app to measure out 2 miles. Now remember that they ABSOLUTELY DO NOT WANT PEOPLE TO GET HURT from doing this new test involving new exercises for generally sedentary people, so a lot of the equipment ends up being *newly* bought rubber shit that needs to be fucking EVERYWHERE ACROSS THE US so that all units can do it. Surely everything was procured at bottom dollar for the benefit of the taxpayers.

Canadians, due to their rampant homosexuality, will be our tip of the spear
