Are you implying that both sexes bring unique qualities that would somehow make the team better?**If that's your idea then you had better get someone else to write your paper; because for all PRACTICAL purposes gender has nothing to do with being a Recon Marine.**There are always a certain number of "Recon Marines" who are referred to as the female organ.**The old 10% rule.** There is also a minimum standard for Recon guys, but these facts do not distract from the high caliber of the other 90%.**If you are a woman and wanted to be Recon then you must possess the following traits:Mental and physical toughnessRun big hills--fastSwim rough oceans--with plenty of gearLong hard patrols with little sleep, plenty of weather, and a plethora of bugsThe never ending contest between Recon guys to be the baddest dude on the Company street.**If you are one of the 10% in this regard then your life will be a living hell.**There is nothing more disgusting to a Recon Marine than a female organ-Recon Marine. There is nothing to stop a mentally and physically tough woman from earning the right to call herself a Recon Marine--except the law.****
