No surprise that POTUS Obama is doing his best to shore up his legacy SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL. Yes in the fluid combat operations of the past few decades there are no front lines so support personnel including women have been involved in combat periodically with occasional disastrous results.
I am glad that Capt. Lauren Serrano had the courage to speak up about risks of gender-integrated close combat units for her husband who is also a USMC Captain.
Individual women can certainly be suitable for close combat however wholesale introduction of women to units merely to integrate is foolhardy.
Disclaimer: I was part of the first USMAPS and USMA class which included women as cadets from 1975 and 1980.

Did the POTUS comment on making selective service registration mandatory for women?
