Here's an idea, create an all-female infantry unit and send them in against ISIS.

If they are successful, women would still have to prove that they were successful...

Served on 3 Security Alert Teams. The 1st one I was #2 man. I married me a Country Girl that could Out Shoot Me. I know better than telling any Lady she can't do something. If they have the skills, more power too them. I worked with some of the Female Leaders in my Community. I know better than say I'm Better (They usually bragged me up but I knew damn well I was nowhere near them, Leaders in Computers/Telecommunications)

Some army's do that have a separate female unit. I don't know about getting one going but it may not be a bad idea. I would like to see how a female unit would stack up against an all male unit compared to a mixed unit.

Cpl Joe Koenig - I would still like to see it if we are going to be a social experiment we might as well experiment.

Historically been done! Army air core for women, Wac's wave's and so on! They were used typically as support staff in logistics and nursing. Mainly because Societies mind set had always been women need protection from the bad guys. In some respects it remains that way today. Where places like England and Scotland have integrated them into the ranks if the woman can preform as their male counter parts do. In the early 80's I learned that one kind of rudely. When a female LT dropped trousers and peed while doing a briefing in the field with her male counterparts. Was surprising to me, It was explained to me after they got done laughing that woman were being made a part of all services at the time.  I dont know to what extent just know what happened that day.
