I wouldn't ever willingly join the military, and I'm on the wrong side of 30, so we'd have to have a pretty fuckin' serious war before my number gets called. My chances of ever fighting a war, therefore, are quite low, and I will never get to form a first hand opinion of whether I would like to fight along side a woman. That said, I challenge anyone to name a time (in the military or anywhere else) when hindsight revealed integration and more equality to be a bad thing. Not 'X may happen if we do Y', but an historical example of when integration turned out to be a mistake. On a personal level, I say if you want to fight, more power to you no matter who you are, because I sure as shit value my life way too much to fight some politicians' fabricated wars.
