QuoteThe first four of the female enlisted sailors selected for the Navy's "silent service" began training this week at submarine school in Groton, the latest milestone in the elimination of one of the U.S. military's few remaining gender barriers.

Anyone who saw the movie "Down Periscope" can see there are both serious and humorous situations that will evolve as this goes into effect.  I would say it is a good thing as women tend to civilize the men they come in contact with.  With the integration of gays already allowed on subs, I could see the crew get together to do the video "In the Navy" by the Village people. , if their Captain allows it.  I am sure adults can handle the problems that will present itself.
