Pentagon Could Be ‘Shredding’ Docs About Female Rangers

From The Daily Caller:

The military may be “shredding” documents that could indicate whether or not women received special treatment while attempting to become the first female Army Rangers, a letter from an investigating Congressman suggests.

Rep. Steve Russell of Oklahoma, himself a veteran and Ranger School graduate, has been investigating claims that Kristen Griest and Shaye Haver, the first ever female graduates of Ranger School, received special treatment. In September, he sent a letter to Army Secretary John McHugh requesting Army records relating to the women’s test scores, medical history, evaluations, and other background details that may help indicate whether they benefited from a lower standard.

But new documents, first written about by Susan Keating of PEOPLE and now obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation, suggest the Pentagon may be playing a cat-and-mouse game with Russell, first stalling for time and then later telling Russell that the information he requested had been destroyed.

While the graduations have been heralded as a major step towards gender equality in the military, critics have accused the Obama administration of playing politics, pressuring the armed forces to lower standards in order to ensure women completed the course. Last month, People published allegations that the Army allowed female Ranger candidates to repeatedly retake tests when men were not allowed to do so and gave them special early access to a difficult night navigation course. One Ranger instructor explicitly described the atmosphere as “politicized.”

This should come as no surprise to anyone. This Regime MO has been to demonize, delay, destroy, and duck all investigations into it's behavior. It's all about "fundamentally transforming" the country in his own image.
