Could we one day have more women than men in the military?

Good afternoon, sir CPT Jack Durish While I agree that this requires much study. Perhaps we are missing the larger trend. I'm an American male who danced at Alvin Ailey and is also now serving his country in the Air Force. IF you want more fit men to join and stay fit, we should be looking at our educational modules in designing schedules. I see the women in my present unit. They cling to each other and support one another. If men want to maintain their viability as the backbone of the armed services, we need to engender a symbiotic attitude. This concept shall be deeply embedded into us. I spend most of my time while on Active duty, pulling my unit members outside and sharpening them up for leading commands one day.

Congratulations obviously to the women who are doing well. I'm still going to work hard to make the men I surround myself with to be of the highest standards at all times. COL Mikel J.

For the sake of the survivability of our nation I certainly hope not. As good as women have done they are not capable to maintain the efficiency and lethality needed to maintain the superiority of our military. Ask yourself what would have happened in WWII if the majority of American Soldiers had been women. Be honest, things would have turned out DRAMATICALLY different. Women have done well but they are in no way capable of bearing the brunt of being the majority of the military.

I always noticed the one boy at our granddaughter's dance recitals. He was drastically outnumbered but soldiered on.
