It's imperative to adopt American military policies that create the strongest and most powerful forces in the world.

In 1998, the Marine Corps placed females at Camp Geiger, North Carolina for integration in Marine Combat Training. At times, platoon size reached 100 entry-level female Marines—3 times the size of all-male platoons. When the company was in the field, male and female platoons would coordinate training together.
