A Look Inside Female Engagement Teams (FET)

Рет қаралды 49,675

Күн бұрын

The men and women in the Marine Corps who fight our Nation’s battles are responsible for carrying the legacy of the Marines before them. The “Female Engagement Teams” (FETs) were one of the most important assets in the Marine Corps' counterinsurgency strategy in Afghanistan. FETs were able to engage segments of the population that male Marines could not interact with due to cultural traditions and customs.

About the United States Marine Corps:
The Marine Corps defends the people of the United States at home and abroad. Within every Marine is the willingness to engage and determination to defeat any adversary, and it is this fighting spirit that allows us to fight and win our Nation’s battles.
The mission of the United States Marine Corps is made up of three promises: We make Marines, we win our Nation’s battles, and we develop quality citizens prepared to fight and win battles.
You don’t join the Marines-you become one, forged in the crucible of training aboard our recruit depots on Parris Island, South Carolina, and in San Diego, California, or through the dedication required of officer candidates at Officer Candidates School in Quantico, Virginia. Beyond the physical requirements, aspiring Marines must prove they have the honor, courage, and commitment to face and defeat any obstacle.
Today, more than 180,000 enlisted Marines and 23,000 Marine Officers serve in active duty or reserve forces on bases and in communities around the world, proudly carrying with them the core values of the Marine Corps.

The music in the background is by Erik the Flutemaker! I recognize it because I also make Native American style flutes out of bamboo and wood.... Having been a Marine for 8 years and serving in combat in Iraq, I use this type of music to help with the PTSD... Awesome video and great choice in music!

Female marines are better soldiers and should go to the front to combat the enemy during just one week per month! At least, my wife becomes a "born killer" as she goes through her premenstrual tension period!

It is totally unwarranted and wrong of you to judge a unit by the actions of a few. Personally I find it difficult to believe that the incidents you describe actually took place primarily due to the Corps "No women in combat" stance. You stated she was assigned to a Fire Team, the smallest combat unit in the Corps, but a Marine combat unit nevertheless. Making unsubstantiated accusations concerning the Marines sexual preference, and especially her CO's is a dangerous and stupid act.

@7waystosunday I agree 100%. It hurts seeing a friend wounded or killed. However, I would go completely feral on the enemy if I saw someone wound or kill a female Marine. God have mercy on anyone that is foolish enough to try, because the male Marines will not. Semper Fi!

@Hitlerwearsasnuggie It would cause a moral issue. Most guys would feel more protective of their female Marines than male Marines.. Simply cause that's how guys are wired.. normally.. Idk that's my explanation.

Interesting, how would this team be effected if they had a transexual in the team? And how would strong believing monotheistic cultures handle this? Interesting questions considering that stupid politicians don't think of the second and third order effects these new ideas affect a battle zone.
