Two Women Become The First to Pass US Army Ranger School

#4

Quote:Comment section from MSN:

 

They were pushed through. Standards WERE lowered to ensure they would graduate. Gag orders are in place because male students were not allowed to peer eval the females, 2 star general officers walked the patrols, and seperate areas were constructed with ponchos for the females in patrol bases. One of the females passed her patrol even though she lost half her platoon in a break in contact. AND, they were given 3 chances to pass the first phase when males are not given that opportunity. Additionally, the females were allowed several months before attending the course to prepare for it without having to report for duty to their regular jobs!
 

Interesting and not surprising if true. You see all sorts of favorable treatment of female recruits going through normal basic and technical training, beyond just the lax fitness standards.

 

Hopefully it is not true though.
