The Air force is a much more detached military fighting group in today's wars.

A fighter pilot doesnt have to stare down the sights of a rifle and watch the victim's head get shot off. Not to say that fighter pilots shouldnt and dont have the feeling of remorse, or the sense that they just took someones life, but its one thing to see it in the air, then to see it happen before your eyes. Same goes for the Navy. At this point in history, when the major military powers are at peace with each other, and full scale naval/air/ground combat is not a reality, Personnel in the Navy and Air force are extremely critical, but less of a liability for woman when the underlying areas of concern arise.

The USAAF and the Navy is a much more suitable area for woman to play their role in. Pushing through all the political correctness, the army and marines are destructive, dangerous, and very taxing fields. Theres too much potential for abuse. Assuming we allow them to serve frontline, we cannot cave in, and make sure that physical requirements do not change simply because of the fact that some cant meet them.

Woman obviuosly have the ability. But you cant ignore the problems that may arise when woman are put in the thick. Make sure they are fit, like every military personnel, and make sure that abuse does not take place.
