Females attempting to complete Ranger School must now open pickle jars of varying size and degrees of torque-tightened lids!

Thoughts? Please keep it (somewhat) clean!

By the way, this is from the Duffel Blog. You have been warned!

Obviously a gender-biased test that will be eliminated from the course...

Is “pickle jar” a euphemism?

Pickle jars? Not my ARMY anymore. Female rangers should have to do everything the males do.

I know. I was being sarcastic too. Except about the same rigors the men do.
