    It will officially open up a lot of roles for women, but yea, it is mostly a PR thing at this point. Women can now officially serve in roles as a Combat Air Crew, on convoys, as medics attached to certain units.

    I cant remember her name right now but she is a female Marine officer that tried to do the Marine Platoon Leaders basic course. She didnt make it because her muscles atrophied much quicker than the males in the class did. Women are just made differently than men and there is no amount of PC that can change that.
