Yeah, way to up combat efficiency.

Actually the female Marines that where members of the maintenance squadron for VMF-211 at Camp Bastion all of those Marines(male and female) are not infantry but still follow the "every Marine is a rifleman" philosophy apparently did just fine in the fire fight that resulted after the Taliban raid on Bastion in 2012.

I'd rather have a female Marine that earned a marksmen badge by my side than you any day of the week.Even if she is not John Henry her lead on target will be worth its weight in gold.What have you shot? A tree from 20 feet away?
