It won’t be long, perhaps a year or longer, but if female members of the United States Armed Services want it badly enough, they will not ring the bell and ultimately move forward to their goals and objectives.
Women would be particularly useful when talking to women in the theaters of operation of Afghanistan and Iraq.
Their customs forbid women from talking to men.
Some women will eventually qualify to be whatever they want to be once they meet the challenges and pass all qualifications.
Remember many women were key players in the French resistance, granted that was more out of necessity.
When they make the grade, this will likely end up a win-win situation for our forces and civilians on the ground when attempting to determine friendly from enemy forces.

A woman who enlisted to become the first ever female Navy SEAL quit after one week of training, reports Task and Purpose.
“The unidentified female candidate dropped out in early August during a three-week course in San Diego that began July 24.
It was the first assessment of potential SEAL officers before they can be sent on to more grueling courses, according to the website, which cited ‘multiple Naval Special Warfare Command sources,'” reports The Washington Examiner. (Source)
Before former President Barack Obama’s rule change, which took effect in January of 2016, women were not allowed in United States Military combat roles. “

Hey, if a person, regardless of gender, can live up to the demands/expectations and not have it dummed down, I am all for it…but do not go changing the qualifications. Every man and woman ought to know how to fight…hand to hand, target practice and so on…especially in todays times, just saying. Quit dumming it down.
