The Defense Secretary made the news official yesterday that the ban on women serving in combat is being lifted. How do you feel about your wife, mother, sister, girlfriend or daughter being on the front lines?

This move will open up more than 230,000 positions to women and pave the way for them to earn higher pay and better promotions however the Defense Secretary said the qualifications will not be lowered, acknowledging that not all women will meet them, and said it will be up to the military service chiefs to recommend whether women should remain excluded from special forces such as the Navy SEALs and Army's Delta Force.

I asked my friends what they thought and here's what a few of them said:
