Women are not fit for front line combat!

Who said that women are equal to men phisically? I said in my earlier statements that, if trained they cen meet combat readiness.

The video that you showed, displayed an exception to the rule. Not every soldier carries a SAW and drums of ammo with himself in Afghatnistan.

There's a reason why mechanized units were mostly in Iraq and not Afghanistan. You have to have kind of specialized units to fight in Afghanistan, like: 10 Mountain and Airborne units. You achieve that specialization through years of training. No soldier was born one.

You implied that they can carry whatever guys can.

Did you you not see the part where I put 60 lbs to 138 lbs? From the minimal amount of weight they have to carry to the extreme? Women alot of trouble with just the 60 lbs and having to run whatever miles the guys have to. 

60lb of what? 

This is your regular combat uniform:

Body armor: 16lb

M4 Carbine: 6.30lb

Camelback with water
