The year before women were admitted to Colorado Springs, many of the 'officers and gentlemen' had inscribed on their class rings "The last class with balls".

This retired woman senior noncom sincerely hopes a few of those dick wavers wound up subordinates to those women.

Speaking of balls: The answer I gave to a punk who told me he wasn't gonna work for a goddam broad. "You're right. You'll work for a goddamn sergeant. Say or act upon that again Airman and I'll have your balls for earrings."

I have no doubt they'll all do fine. No one spends four years in the academy Waring Blender, survives and thrives, then comes out a plush toy.

They couldn't survive a day of the prep course, let alone 4 years.

From an ole sarge, well done ma'ams.
