Folks may be amazed, but I agree with you. We are speaking of a combat situation in a combat-zone, not peacetime assignment or even state-side assignment during war time. The entire point here is that losing a soldier (male or female) while in a combat-environment is extremely dangerous for everyone else in the unit.
