I can not believe its 2013 and women can only now serve in combat roles in the US military. I mean we didn’t have desegregated military for blacks until 1948 and military didn’t allow open gays in it till 2011. We always tried to fool yourself into believing we are better than those women hating bigoted radical fundamentalists overseas and yet this country is the most backwards conservative nation in the entire western world.
