create EQUAL physical fitness standards for men and women serving in combat roles in the United States Military.

In accordance with new legislation passed to allow women into combat jobs, we the people demand EQUAL physical fitness standards for both men and women serving in combat related jobs. FM 21-20 provides guidelines for developing programs which will improve and maintain physical fitness levels for all Army personnel. These programs will help leaders prepare their soldiers to meet the physical demands of war. Currently female soldiers are required to perform at roughly 60% the physical capacity of their male counterparts. With females serving in combat now, we the people demand that equality means equal. To keep all of our combat troops safe with across the board standards. Equality is a two way street. Combat is harsh and safety is paramount. Appropriate physical strength is required.
