Episode 2: The Truth About Women in Combat Units
-

In 2015, the Marine Corps completed the most comprehensive study ever conducted on gender-integrated combat units. The results were unambiguous — and then they were ignored.
Doug Truax and Will Thibeau break down the Ground Combat Element Integrated Task Force findings, what happened when the data collided with Obama-era policy, and why Congress is now attempting to legislate sex-neutral fitness standards into permanent law for the first time.
They cover:
- What the 2015 GCEITF study found — and why the Secretary of the Navy rejected it before the report was even released
- How the Army Combat Fitness Test was redesigned to produce equal pass rates rather than measure combat capability
- The specific legislative provisions in the FY2027 NDAA cycle — and why this is the highest-risk item going into conference
- The fallback strategy if the combat exclusion gets stripped in negotiations
- Why none of this gets easier with a Pacific theater conflict on the horizon
The Marine Corps did its job. Now it's Congress's turn.
