RE: [RC] [RC] - sehredtWhat political statement would be made? That women can do more than hide behind burkhas and breed? That American soldiers are capable of doing more than conquering nations? Why would it be a bad thing to demonstrate that an American, a woman, and a soldier shares this geographical area's historic passion for horses? And is good at it. Very good. :o) Scott ---- Adam and Jannelle <mfarm@xxxxxxx> wrote: While this is a great idea in theory, first of all, she's probably be pretty dang hot (as in temperature) in her uniform. And I'm just not so sure that making a political statement (which this would be) at this time in this geographical location is such a great idea.

I've been off list for a while, so pardon me if I missed this - but does anyone have contact info for Ms. Kroon? It would be awesome if all of us sent her letters, copies of EN, etc. And why didn't we all get together (along with the Arabian sponsors of the event) to request a "special deployment" for her for this ride? It would be incredible to have the US represented by one of our soldiers - and a female to boot - in this ride! The Army (or Marines or whatever) could be persuaded, I'm sure, by the resulting positive PR! Can you imagine a female American soldier crossing the finish line first IN UNIFORM!!?!?!?! How cool would that be? :o) Scott =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
