"They are young and I don't want to enlist problems," he said. "I'm not saying that women are not qualified to be in security forces, but it is a question of discipline."Ahem. Well, we know what some the 1120s think, and counter-think.
PS. Make sure and read the whole story for a VERY cool history lesson.
