What do you think? The current two-day series featuring Mrs. Elaine Donnelly and arguing against the U.S. military placing women into combat roles has really stirred up some strong response. Our audience is clearly seeing this issue from various perspectives. Here are some of the comments we’ve received thus far:

Wanted to say how much she appreciated the program on the military today. She enjoyed listening to Elaine Donnelly.

We hear so much about women’s rights and everything should be fair, wage, etc. but when it comes to service, not so. Really rubs me the wrong way.

Caller criticized the premise of today’s program. He is in the National Guard and has been on active duty since 9/11. He claims to be very offended by the notion that women are not able to perform the same duties as men or that they should not be allowed to serve in combat areas.

Called to comment on the broadcast today on “Challenges Facing Today’s Military”. She believes that when a woman decides to be in the military on the front lines, she has to be willing to go into combat.

We’d welcome your comments. Please be constructive - we want to better understand your view, and personal attacks and rants won’t be posted.
