But seriously, it probably caused distraction and has now led to a compromise in integrity and the cohesion of many. Where distrust for that reason and in that place hasn't existed since the H. L. Hunley was launched.

Created a problem where one had not previously existed. Question would be did those few women perform their jobs equally as well as the men they replaced or did they only create more work and a new command issue?

I'm not against women in the service and feel there are many jobs and positions where their impact on readiness and mission accomplishment is not compromised simply based on sex.
