Women in military

Oh yeah, it's a real M16

An M16 weights 7lbs, not including ammo. In combat you would probably carry 7-10 full clips which would mean at least 25lbs extra, not including ruck, water, grenades, etc. An M60 weights 30 lbs(unloaded) and the troop carries 50 lbs worth of ammo making it damn near 100lbs for the weapon and ammo alone, not including gear. Sorry but I cannot put my life on the line and depend on a woman to cover my ass carrying this much weight on a patrol. A man can do it no problem.

Small and slim woman can not carry anything other than a handbag, but the big woman is strong as a ox.

Some women have taken part in the war, but it can be said that it is not their thing.
