The scandal was turned into a witch hunt by radical feminists and used to break down the Navy's opposition to placing women in combat.

HUH??? This is ridiculous.

And as for the rest of it: women have been training fighter pilots forever. Did it in WWII, do it now. They were not previously allowed to qualify for combat duty. Though, of course, they WERE allowed to fly equally dangerous supply missions, in planes and helicopters. And the women who did this during WWII weren't honored until very recently, and didn't qualify for pensions.

Do you seriously believe that women can't fly as well as men? What rubbish.

I've asked before: where on earth do you FIND this crap?
