They&#8217;ll not only include women in the training, but, if the graduate the selection program and training, women will be assigned to the SEAL teams, according to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2015\/08\/18\/politics\/women-navy-seals-report\/index.html\">CNN<\/a>; <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Why shouldn&#8217;t anybody who can meet these (standards) be accepted? And the answer is, there is no reason,&#8221; Adm. Jon Greenert told the publication. &#8220;So we&#8217;re on a track to say, &#8216;Hey look, anybody who can meet the gender non-specific standards, then you can become a SEAL.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If women can pass the unit&#8217;s demanding training requirements, Greenert said, they will be allowed into the elite force. Officials did not reveal to Defense News when they plan to allow women to compete for a spot.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I agree, if a women can successfully endure the grueling training, they can certainly qualify for an assignment to the units. However, as with the Army&#8217;s training, there shouldn&#8217;t be any accommodations made in regards to the standards.
