Nice troll, Kendall! My guess is the woman captain would have more problems with the male tank drivers getting lost and not asking for directions. Combat boots are basic black and go with everything.

I tend to think that, during a war, there's more shooting done by folks who are pissing themselves, scared to death somebody's gonna spatter their guts any second - not the John Wayne "let's go kick us some ass" Hollywood bullshit that some folks seem to swallowed as reality. The folks that place people in situations where they must kill do so dispassionately. I tend to think that decisions to go to war aren't based on testosterone or even anger but for political or economic power.
