THE Australian Defence Force was today accused of putting up a smokescreen to hide its politically correct policy of only hiring women for roles including those on the frontline. The Daily Telegraph revealed the weekly targets sent out to ADF recruiters showed no targets for men in 35 of 50 Army positions but the instruction to “recruit immediately” if a woman came forward for combat roles such as armoured cavalry. In response the ADF put out a statement saying: “All roles in the Australian Defence Force (ADF) are open for men and women to apply.” But an ADF recruiter told The Telegraph: “Yes they can apply – but only women will get the job.” The instructions to ADF recruiters are clear with roles for men marked in red, clearly showing there are no vacancies for the next 12 months. But the ones for women are marked in green, showing targets for hiring in the next six months. Frontline roles including rifleman and artilleryman are also highlighted with a yellow star which means “recruit immediately”. The internal ADF document, obtained by The Telegraph, also shows similar quotas for the Navy and Air Force. Of 18 jobs open for the navy in the next six months just one is open to male recruits. None of the seven targeted Air Force roles is open to men. The recruiter said he had also been ordered to tell any male already recruited for a combat role but not yet in training to change their choice of job to make way for women recruits. “I have not done that,” he said. “I want the best person for the job irrespective of their gender.” Former Army officer and Australian Conservatives member Bernie Gaynor said: “Defence’s statement attempting to refute news that males are being discriminated against for frontline combat roles is nothing more than a smokescreen. “It is true that males can apply for any job. It is also true that females who are accepted must pass the required standards. But this does not address the fundamental aspect of the situation. “Recruiting officers have been directed not to process applications from males for combat roles over the next 12 months. Males will simply not get the jobs while females will be fast-tracked through the system,” he said.  Wow.

I won't comment on this, because I will get warned if I do not adhere to the lunacy that women are as capable as men on the battlefield.
Just sayin'

Eh, fair.

I'm not Australian and not close to this story at all, so I certainly could be wrong about it.
That said, I find this really hard to believe. For what possible reason would they be rejecting qualified male applicants? Is the concept of women in front-line combat roles just incredibly popular in Australia or something? Again, I honestly do not know the answer to that question, but on the basis of who the TC is, and the fact that it seems like their only source for this is "a recruiter", as well as what seems like common sense, I'm taking this article with a pound of salt.
Is this finally a conundrum that CAN'T be solved by helicopter theft?
