I think it's unbelievably silly that the Soviets (as in, those guys we've spent the last 50 years demonizing) had women as snipers, pilots, and tank drivers while the US had the "WASPS" (which really just flew supplies), and eventually disbanded the WASPS when public opinion switched to thinking they were floosies, because, yeah, that's apparently more important than whether or not they do the job. It's not so important when you're staring down the barrel of a Luger and your country is on the verge of annialation, is it? Mmm? It's amazing the stupid restrictions people insist upon when they AREN'T about to be destroyed.
I love the idea of a 30 Day MEME for awesome chicks <3
