Navy preparing to open SEAL screening process to women

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) — The U.S. Naval Academy is preparing to open its screening process for Navy SEAL training next year to women who are juniors at the academy, the superintendent said Monday.

Vice Adm. Walter "Ted" Carter told the academy's Board of Visitors at their quarterly meeting that the school is waiting for specific guidance from the Navy before definitely opening next spring's screening. He noted it could take longer before female midshipmen will take part in the rigorous 24-hour marathon screening process.

"We'll be ready to put women through the screener as early as next year," Carter said. "I don't know that we could move any faster, but it could be longer depending on what the details of the policy decisions are."

The superintendent's comments come less than a week after Defense Secretary Ash Carter announced the military will open all combat jobs to women.

  2. So we are going to send our mothers and daughters to kill people.

    But considering all the sons and fathers are apparently turning into spineless sissy babies, I guess we do not really have a choice.

    Something is wrong when all the boys want to be girls and all the girls want to be boys.

  3. Sounds great until the 99.9 % of women who don't want to join the service get a draft notice.

  7. American women are weak and inferior compared to the women in Israel who must serve in the military.
