An individual that can't even control himself in the barracks definitely shouldn't be placed in a combat situation.
From what I saw being involved in many firefights, it didn't matter. We still performed as a unit without incident. Above all else, we were marines and had an obligation to protect our brothers in combat. It's not like the movies like platoon where the squad was divided between good guys and bad.

Are we saying that women should not be allowed in the military or in certain jobs
I agree that women should have access to any job a man does. However, infantry is no place for a woman for a thousand reasons. Don't care if I sound sexist to anyone that's the truth. For instance, in looking around the Marines at all the female marines, I see 1 out of 20 women with an expert shooting badge with the M-16.
