Should these women now face a dishonourable discharge, for a self inflicted condition, making them unfit for active service?

[daffy654]

11TH best? who are the other 10 then? or did you just make that up to wind up AOG?

I can almost hear him bursting a blood vessel right now at only being 11th best.

Quinlad, "our boys" include girls.

^ Just not pregnant ones............;o)

AOG....putting all the rhetoric aside.

/// AOG - they are not out there to SUPPORT - that is suggesting that they are inferior -/////

Of course if you haven't an argument, why not create lies to get your twisted logic over.

Where have I said that they are inferior?

Let me explain to someone that has such a small and bigoted mind like yours.

When I said they are out there in support, this is true since they are not fighting side by side with the men on the front line, taking on the Taliban.

On the whole they are most likely, doing valuable work behind the lines, perhaps in a medical/surgical capacity or in administration etc etc.

Equally important work, which they deserve the full praise of the British public, but those that are coming home to safety, because they have got themselves pregnant, then one has to think differently of them.

I won't go on to call you all the names you have labelled me with, enough to say you are just an uninformed prat. !!!!!!!!

[Sqad]

AOG.......LOL

You have been on AB long enough to know the score.

Pick ANY topic....give me the username.......and I will give you the tone of their answer. Male, female, over 65,under 65's. left or right or centre of Politics.

There are few roles in the military which remain off-limits to female personnel. They are engaged in highly dangerous tasks such as flying attack helicopters, driving in military convoys and are often part of foot patrols.

But they are still forbidden from serving in what is known as "close combat". That is fighting with units - mainly in the infantry - whose key role is to seek out, engage with and kill enemy forces.



Women soldiers are not in Afghanistan as secretaries or nurses AOG.

//// AOG, you have chosen to ignore my last post. there's no winning with you, huh? ////

The reason I chose to ignore you last post, was because it, along with your other posts, did not contain enough of an argument to deserve an answer, sorry.

[jackthehat]

I apologise, AOG. I thought I was dealing with someone who had made a detailed study into the role of women in the Army. I now realise I am talking to someone who is getting his information spoon-fed to him by the newspaper(s)....'most likely'..........'perhaps', you've not really done your homework, have you ?

"..........then one has to think differently of them." Erm.................why ?

[daffy654]

AOG,you have ignored every one of my posts,am I not deemed worthy of any answers either?

[Sqad]

jack.....where do you get TOUR information from?

Newspapers, TV, books, or perhaps the Internet?

Can't see your accusation re. AOG

[daffy654]

Sqad,jack has already stated that she has a son in the army, so her information is probably first hand from him.

[cazzz1975]

stupid women, why are they not using some form of birth control? what a waste of money and resources

[Sqad]

daffy....nonsense.......that makes it second hand.

First hand would be if jack went out to see for himself.

[daffy654]

jack is female Sqad,did you not know that?

The info is first hand when given from her son,it only becomes second hand when jack passes that info on.

[Sqad]

daffy.....no I didn't. I thought that jackthehat was male.

[jackthehat]

Sqad - As you are the father of sons who have served you ought to understand where information comes from.

My son HAS served in Afghanistan. I listened to what he told me. I have seen photographs and videos. I'll not say more other than whilst MY evidence is second hand, at least it is from a first-hand source.

[jackthehat]

Blimey, Daffy.................if I hadn't been so distracted by the TV, I may have got that in first............:o)

[Sqad]

jack.....I quite understand and respect your post.

[naomi24]

Is your son home, Jack? How is he?
