Bill seeks to raise fitness standards for Army close combat forces

I always admired the Marine’s “Every Marine a rifleman “ credo, cannot see it working in today’s all volunteer Services,especially since it seems most training now must include all inclusive social outlook programs,touchy-feely crap,God help us all when the bad guys
come calling,What’s up Chuck? Phil.

SGT Philip Roncari No one on RP has mentioned the co-ed Boot Camp I understand to be in operation at USMCRD San Diego?

CSM Charles Hayden- I’ve seen little snippets of this co-ed boot camp on a few different platforms, think the powers that be are keeping this on the down low,can’t wait to get together with some of my old “Jar Head “friends during the holidays,they will know the straight skinny ,I’m sure,Phil.

SGT Philip Roncari Good, as you say, co-ed results may be suppressed! Long term USMC will be interesting

Well, first it must be tested for a decade at only a moderate expense and evaluated by a expert third party, consisting of former senior enlisted and field grade officers before you can make that determination.
