Women on Subs: Just Around The Corner

News here of SECNAV and CNO both joining the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs as saying that submarine duty should be opened to women. No one should ever make the mistake of thinking that I have a "progressive" worldview, but this decision is long overdue. None of the arguments against having women in subs stand up to the reality that is their everyday performance in every other ship afloat and societal expectations of what equality means.
