LOL. ROFL even.
For some context, the Navy has allowed women to try out for special combat teams since 2015 since we live in idiotic times, but as of the Year of our Lord 2025, no woman has successfully completed BUD/S training because it is absolutely brutal and it needs to be brutal.
A wannabe-GI Jane's dream of becoming the first female Navy SEAL ended because military recruiters delayed her application so long that she aged out, she claimed in a lawsuit.
US Navy officials failed to advance Amanda S. Reynolds' application, then told her in the fall that she would no longer qualify for Naval Officer Training Command in Newport, RI, because she'd be over the age limit of 42 by the time she graduated, according to court papers.
'The opportunity … was kind of taken away from me. I would like that to be reinstated,' Reynolds, 41, told The Post. 'I would just like the outcome to be determined by the merits instead of by some sort of technicality.'
Okay, based on the merits, you are not qualified.
The Teams don't need diversity points. They need lethality. We're talking the top 0.01% of the warriors on the planet. There is a reason there are no 40-something women competing as linebackers at the Super Bowl, and being a SEAL is much harder.
'I could have gone to officer candidate school in February, [but] they delayed my application without reason or cause and then they told me I was too old,' she said.
The Long Island lawyer first sought to join the Navy in 2018.
She's 41 right now. That means she was still almost 35 years old when she first tried to apply.
Do you know how many men make it into the SEAL program after age 30? Here, I will give you the testimony of one of the few men who has done it:
But our girlboss won't be held back by things like reality:
'I was working in litigation for 12 years, and I kind of got burnt out working 24/7,' the Woodbury resident said, calling the SEALs 'such a more noble cause.'
An avid long-distance runner and swimmer who is scuba-certified, Reynolds said the special forces 'kind of jibed with my physical pursuits.'
Uh...
"I was tired of my law job, so I decided to find my inner goddess by joining an elite team of warriors that jibes with my fitness goals"??
That's her reasoning? 😂😭
'I hope to serve as this country's first female Navy SEAL Officer, so that there may be a second, and a third, and an infinitesimal many more female candidates who might impress upon you these shared values in the very same way,' she wrote.
She can't even grip a rifle correctly and doesn't look like she has the muscle mass to stabilize it without help:
But she wants to HALO-jump into enemy waters as a SEAL because she has an "inexpressible, indefatigable nature to dream" (her words)?
Keep dreaming, Amanda.
