If women can meet the existing standards for fitness and such, let them in.

However, that bar should not be lowered for them. Lives and security are more important than political correctness.

Agreed. I understand that Kurdish women are hell of a fighters, but in a modern army, where selectiveness is key, you can only accept what is proven as being the best.

That means those "best" have to go through selective training right? Right?

You have 4 months to go through basic training. Two is boot camp and two are your military occupational training.

Do you believe that in 4 months, women can't be trained to do 50+ push ups, 60+ sit ups and run 2 miles under 15mn?

That's your combat readiness physical requisition.
