If I saw those nekked on payday, I would go home broke that night.
I am sure she will be getting a big return on her aftermarket investments.

Im all for women in the military, but I dont think we should cut them any slack. They should be expected to meet the same physical requirements as men.
IMO, when it comes to being in the military, the excuse of, "Im just a girl", doesnt cut it.

During my 8 years of service I had the honor of serving side-by-side with some of the best soldiers, both male and female, that the Army had to offer. I saw tours of duty in Panama, Saudi, and Bosnia. Women were there serving their nation with pride and expertise. I went through air borne, air assault, PLDC, and a number of other academies. Women where there working as part of a cohesive unit. Most women were able to keep pace with their men counterparts. Most women had no problem powering through the pain and discomfort that we all felt and endured. I have seen women quit and given up in the same numbers as men.
I agree with BigHersh when he said that most men would have a difficult time dragging an injured/incapacitated soldier off the field of battle. I've seen 6'4" men who weighed 145lbs and had zero upper body strength. So this is not a true determination of a woman's physical prowess. Are their physical fitness standards the same as men's? No. But, the standards are different based upon an performance expectation for age and gender. For those who do not know, not all men have the same physical fitness standard. There are different requirements for different ages. Both in performance and height/weight. So, why not for gender?
If you want to see a lot of young women acting promiscuously, go onto any college campus and enter the freshman dorms. From my experience, the women in the military exhibit a great deal of professionalism and maturity. Even at a young age. They strive hard to overcome the perceived stereotypes in a male dominated environment and don't wish to jeopardize their credibility by acting "slutty".
