What would be your gender-neutral alternative to referring to all Air Force members as "airmen"?

Airman is what it has been and always should be. Tradition always first especially because the term is not exclusionary. Secondly, on another tilt I am really tired of these feminists who demand equality but are not required to meet the same physical standards as men so, they either have standards separate from the men's as in the USAF of they have the standard lowered as the Marine Corp has recently done with their 3 pull up requirement. Equal is equal not Equal but different. I may be old school but men and women are not equal in all aspects by design. I believe that women in combat are detrimental to the whole, not because they are incapable of performing but, because I as a man am programmed to protect women. I believe it is chromosomal and I believe that is a good thing, it is by design.

I would say all this PC is just stupid. Call it the way it has been for years!!! I am so tired of all these stupid A** Politicians trying to make something out of nothing!! Get a real job!!!

Corpsman could be called a combat medic as in the Army. Airmen could become aviation specialists or Air Force Specialists.

"Airperson" springs to mind. Too much importance is being place on this issue, oddly not by woMEN, but by persons who have found fault, where none exists, within our military force structure. In my time in service I don't recall having trouble telling my male Marines from my female Marines, nor do I think anyone in the Air Force will have trouble telling their male Airmen from their female Airmen.

Just call them Magots!

Keep it an all male military and less issues will arise !!

Do not change the name just to conform to some one that has a butt hurt on them. These names have be around for a lot longer than these whiners

You could call them soldier since the air force is derived from the Army Air corps

Sky Warriors

Why change it? 'man' is part of 'woman'!
