 Women in battle? 'NEVER' says Cap.

Defense Secretary Casper Weinberger said yesterday the Army should give women
soldiers the chance to hold combat-related or physically tough jobs but they
should not be allowed to work in a combat situation.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, isn't that sweet. Women will never be treated equal at that rate. I don't
see why women aren't allowed into combat. I seem to recall reading somewhere
that the female of the species is the fiercest fighter. I have also read
somewhere that females are very shrewd about getting what they want.

If the Government won't let them into combat then at least let them run the
Pentagon and/or negotiate our peace talks.
