" Olson established a U.S. branch of a South African security firm after helping it win more than $3 million in contracts to provide protection for senior U.S. and British officials, as well as for KBR, a subsidiary of Halliburton Co." Big dogs bite fast and hard.

The whole point of women in military is to erase notion of men as heroes that fight and die to protect us. They don't want any revered or respected role/organization to be exclusively male. It's all about power (not equality). Irony is women rulers would need men to protect them.

Were you drafted? The US has an all-volunteer army and hasn't used the draft in 46 years. Try to keep up.

Men still have to sign up for the draft between 18-25 in the event a draft is issued. Usually this happens when they get a DL or register to vote. Women don't have to do this as draft laws were never updated to include them. https://www.sss.gov/Registration/Why-Register … https://www.sss.gov/Registration/Women-And-Draft …

Let's take a look at her benefits package. Her retirement pay, alone, will cost the taxpayers $10M. 60% of the DOD's military budget, every year, is for military pensions. Military pensions are 35% of our total budget every year.

Equal rights should have women register for the draft. Funny how no woman has gone to Federal Court as far as I know and sued for that "right ". Just saying.

Also a Colonel in the Air Force. That’s like playing flag football and trying to be a commentator on for the NFL. Air Force does little and knows little when it comes to war. Just because you were hand held up to that rank due to policy doesn’t make you a voice for war efforts
