EO (equal opportunity) is probably one of the greatest forces working within the U.S. military today, even in my short tenure, I have run up against it many times. Most notably, when I graduated from LTC at Ft. Knox, one of my buddies was our Platoon Leader, but because none of the four platoons in our company had a female platoon leader (females made up about 5% of our unit), he was pulled from his position for the graduation ceremony so that a female cadet who had no idea what she was doing and who went on an immediate power trip (she actually got a no-go from the course) could stand in front of us throughout the ceremony. But oh, well, what the hell can you do?
