Even though women are now able to apply for ground combat jobs, and even though there have been those one hundred women who completed the training and are considered eligible to apply, not one woman has signed up yet to switch career tracks to ground combat position. A Marine Corps spokesperson said that they expect there will be some to sign up, and that they still believe there are women who are interested, but that some may have other reasons for not wanting to change their current career track of doing other kinds of jobs. They also believe some of the new female recruits to the Marines will be interested in attempting to go into ground combat training. In the meantime, they are working on developing better training for the females to help prevent injuries, and on changing the mindset of the men in the Marines, to make women more accepted in these positions.

It's quite simple if they are capable and can accomplish the same things as men. Make it through the same test and show equal proficiency they should be allowed to serve equally
