As long as the criteria was the same for them, I think this is awesome.
Anyone who thinks they don't deserve it are welcome to try to get into Ranger School and pass it your damned selves.

I'm happy to see this, it's a nice change but they are still going to butt heads against the rules against having women in combat roles. They earned it

I don't care your race, gender, color or background. If you're willing to go sign up and get shot, go ahead

5 RepliesStandards were lowered. Not real Rangers. Enjoy.

I've been following that. Those girls are bad-asses.

3 RepliesCriteria was not the same. They originally failed but we're allowed to try until they passed. I'm not anti female solder, but this is strictly publicity stunt.

Still think they pushed them through..regardless they aren't real Rangers.

BTW BTW BTW BTW Ranger School=\=RASP (Aka the program to get into the 75th Ranger Battalion). Any non-Combat MOS can do Ranger School and doesn't make you a Ranger.

They are wanna bees and they are also ugly asf Here comes the feminists

2 RepliesNice. They're more macho than I'll ever be.

It's impressive...

Who cares about the shenanigans of the American military?
-
I say well done to them both! However, I worry for them. If they are on the front line or whatever and captured by the enemy, what do you think will happen to them? They probably won't see them as soldiers, but women.

4 RepliesWhy should it be a bigger deal for two women to succeed than for 2 men to succeed?

Now just wait til they join the ranger train. Choo Choo

2 RepliesI don't care so long as the standards were the same. My opinion is, the enemy doesn't care what gender you are. The military isn't a social experiment, it's meant to be as efficient as possible. If a woman serves a role more efficiently than a man, she deserves the role. If not, then she doesn't it. Simple as that. The idea of lowering standards for a life or death occupation is ridiculous to me.

Really. People who pick two. ._.

2 RepliesAs long as standards weren't lowered, that's great.

That's awesome! Beware, there are some true 8 year old, racist, homophobic, sexist, arrogant, obnoxious people on the forums.
