Truth be told the ability to drag away a dead body is useless in direct combat why waste combat capacity to move a dead body?

In combat the first priority is to gain or maintain fire superiority harsh as this sounds that means that a wounded person is just going to have to wait until their comrades gain enough control of the situation such that it is possible to reach the injured person without risking further casualties.

As I said before the Viet Cong had many female combatants the VC was also expert at fading away and often leaving few bodies behind must have been the males doing all the work.What it really was is they lacked our silly beliefs.

Tome it has nothing to do with political correctness if a person can perform the tasks there should be noting baring them.
I truly mean nothing mean or mysogynistic, I simply believe minimal physical requirements are in place for a reason, and if little Miss, can barely hump her pack, how much will that slow down the unit?

I am sorry, pass the phsyical requirements men do, or drive a water truck.

edit: I like girls in combat, they can play too. In Israel, they let them man (or women) tanks. I am down with that..

On foot, mixed infantry, I got a problem with.
