7. It's all bullshit, or should we say, bushit
When you are doing forward combat support operations, you are in the fucking mix. The enemy doesn't sit there and go, "Oh, hey, dude, that's a chick over there, ya can't shoot her, she's only here in a combat support capacity."

The reason we had Jessicas and Shoshanas getting captured is because they were hauling ass with their support gear right behind the primary forces, without sufficient battlefield training to properly defend themselves if things got real hairy, and fer-shit equipment, because they were "just" a combat support unit. What they ought to do is set a real standard, stick to it, and let whosoever qualifies and wishes to engage in that sort of work do the goddamn job.

He's gonna have a real "separate but equal" problem if he starts up a draft and does not include females. The lawsuits will fly thick and fast....as they should.
