Tonight, how politicians who oppose women serving in combat, reconcile their position, with the facts about women serving in combat, you can hear for yourself and you can decide for yourself.

今晚,反对女性参与战斗的政治家们调整自己的立场,而关于女性在军中服役的事实,你可以听自己的而且可以自己决定。

“我们的国家是建立在公民士兵及我们的民主前提基础上,我认为每位公民都有责任来保护这个国家。”

Well, the policy came together after more than a year's effort by Secretary Panetta and Joint Chiefs Chairman Martin Demspey.

You know, combat is a life or death game, and if we get this wrong, the loser dies."

你知道,战斗是一种非生即死的游戏,如果我们这步棋走错,则满盘皆输。”

Republican Senate James Inhole sounded alarm bells as well, warning that the Congress might have to put brakes on the idea.

共和党参议员詹姆斯·因赫尔也敲响了警钟,他警告称国会可能必须停止这一想法。

And social conservative groups, such as the Family Research Council also weighed in against the idea.

此外, 在现代战争中还有一个不可避免的事实,前线部队可以非常模糊,意思是非战斗角色可以随时在战斗中结束。

"In fact, in 2003, when I got to the Bagdad, as the commander of the 1st Armored Division, my first foray out of the forward operating base, I hopped into the up-armored Humvee, and I asked the driver, you know who he was, where he was from?
