I dont buy it, even as her being a Lt. Col... I never met a WM, or bag
nasty as the majority of us(Former USMC) called them, that could carry her
own weight, let alone defeat a male military person @ anything.. Other
than putting weight on and raising the size of a seat required in a hummer
from 16 inches to 24 inches...
but thats just my opinion.. and I hate the fact that women are in the
military... they don't belong.. plain and simple...
this probably will start a large disussion but I wont put anymore of my $.02
in to it..
