I live a few miles from Ft Sill and use their facilities as a retiree. It is a culture shock every time I drive on that base.

I was at the VA this past weekend and for the first time in my life saw the most blatant tranny too
 6inch heels, wig, bad makeup, tight clothes and the whole nine. Quite a few groans from the ww2 and vietnam vets there... |

I'm scouting the rural areas around Ft Hood for a retirement home, once we leave El Paso on or about Sep 2022. We're planning a trip this May to get the lay of the land. One positive observation - I see more military age women shooting ARs and attending gun shows (pre Covid). I also work with active duty women that own black rifles. |

I'm just a member of the Chairforce so I ain't got no dog in the fight, I just hope that they hold everyone to the same standards and do not compromise for the sake of diversity or whatever.
Lowering standards for the sake of diversity is going to get people hurt or killed. |

I've come around to the point of "if they get pregnant, throw them out." |

Quote HistoryQuoted: how so? Maybe I should have just said "shock" Just my opinion based off of being on that base for the past 14 plus years since retiring. The new troops are tiny, my 5'2" wife pointed out how small a lot of the male trainees are now. Seriously doubt they could carry/drag their fellow soldier anywhere if they needed help. The amount of soldiers, especially females I see and hear in the hospital for BS reasons. They don't pay any attention to a retiree sitting quietly in the corner and they openly talk about the various ways to get out of work/duty/etc., and they are fully aware they get special treatment being females. Watching how the DI's tiptoe around the trainees, not wanting to offend or have some kind of complaint filed against them I guess. The complete lack of military bearing even amongst regular troops. Every time I go to the PX/commissary the way they grab ass, have trashed uniforms, not wearing a cover outside, its all so foreign to me. The loud and proud and in your face gay soldiers take a bit to get used to. I could go on but I am sure you get my meaning. I am thankful we still have young people willing to volunteer but its just not the type of young people I guess I was expecting. |

Not a big fan of women in combat arms, but it's gonna happen no matter what. I often wonder how many would perform carrying full kit, weapon and ammo up a hill in Afghanistan...seen some females do it and wonder how many non veterans on Arfcom would do. Some can do it, many cannot. People live and die by their choices, chose wisely. |

Real men don't advocate sending our wimminz off to war-God's wholesome creatures that were purpose-designed to give birth and nurture life. WTF is wrong with people at any-let alone the most senior-level of military or political leadership that thinks this gender "equality" during armed conflict abroad is normal?
I remember CMC Al Gray and other service chiefs standing up and pushing back against this "women belong in combat arms" bullshit back in the late '80s when testifying before Congress. Different breed of military officer back then. Then again, Senators Kirstin Fucking Gillibrand and Tammy Fucking Duckworth didn't sit on the Senate Armed Services Committee, either. The outcome of this unnecessary and asinine PC nonsense is not going to be pretty. |
