Any military has a strong interest in recruiting healthy people who do not need a lot of medical care because that is an expense that takes money away from combat power and the other basic needs in the military like good quarters or housing, food, equipment, and training. I think the military should have some discretion to recruit and retain various genders when valuable knowledge, skills and abilities are there. It's all about the capacity to do the mission, not be some place primarily for obtaining surgery at government expense.
