Thank you - kind of the point I was looking to make - they were all volunteers. Nobody forced them to do it. And a damn fine job those that were selected did.
And all those females wishing to join the RAF Regiment will be the same - volunteers. Nobody is forcing them to join. And those that do will, I'm sure, do an equally fine job or be shown the door. And why shouldn't they be given the chance to do what they want to do?
Off topic, but this has to be one of the most unintentionally funny threads outside of Jet Blast for ages - only normally see such internet meltdowns on t'other (Army) site. And, of course, on sci-fi forums since it was announced the next Doctor Who was going to be a ....... woman. Shock horror.
