I believe that women (such as my wife who enlisted during WWll) belong in the Armed Services. In fact, I still believe in the draft and that every mentally and physically abled bodied person should have to serve some time in the military performing some kind of patriotic service. BUT WOMEN SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO SERVE IN COMBAT.

There are plenty of non-combative positions available that could very easily be performed by women.

Even conscientious objectors (remember Alvin York?) should be required to serve or else go and STAY in Cananda or some other county but if your not willing to serve and protect your country, you don't deserve to live here in American. Yes, I know it's not a constitutional requirment so don't give me any of that crap.

I have absolutely no respect for cowards, draft dodgers ( and I will refrain from naming the most prominent) and pacifist who want all the benifits our county offers but are unwilling to fight for it.
