Another special operations unit is set to open doors to women who want to try out if they can pass the tough course they have. The U.S. Navy SEALs are next to experiment on having women try their gender non-specific standards and the possibility of them earning the chance to become members of the Tier 1 unit.

In a Navy Times news story, Admiral Jon Greenert  and Rear Adm. Brian Losey, the head of the Naval Special Warfare Command, said that should be allowed to serve if they can pass the legendary six-month Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL training.

"Why shouldn't anybody who can meet these [standards] be accepted? And the answer is, there is no reason," Greenert said Tuesday in an exclusive interview with Navy Times and its sister publication Defense News. "So we're on a track to say, 'Hey look, anybody who can meet the gender non-specific standards, then you can become a SEAL..

This announcement comes in the heels of news of two women passing for the first time the Ranger School.  Most of the U.S. Military branches, are now experimenting in having women apply for all the roles available, including combat roles. This is in accordance with the decision of the Pentagon to open up all the roles for women by 2016. Only the U.S. Marines have decided that ground combat roles, such  as those done by the Marine infantry all male though the MARSOC are reviewing their standards looking into the possibility of having women become part of the special operations unit.

The U.S. Navy SEALs Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL training, or “BUD/s” is a  six month course designed to test the mental and physical capabilities of the candidates. This includes the "Hell Week" where candidates are always on the move, wet, covered in mud, their eyes lined with sand, and with only a maximum of four hours of sleep. It is one of the toughest selection courses for special operations forces and candidates can drop-out anytime by ringing the bell.Those who pass the course will then earn the coveted Trident Pin.

So far, there no announcements when the next training will take place that will finally include women. So far, the only female U.S. Navy SEAL that we only know of is Demi Moore in the G.I .Jane movie.
