From what I remember of the story, they started releasing him on day passes or something and he somehow got a passport and flew to China....

Well that's good news for us. I don't want to pay to keep him away from the innocent for his whole life. Hopefully our government does something right and doesn't allow him back in. No need to chase him, let him live his life far away.

I young gal in the family did the test, failed 4 times before passing -- she trained 2 years for the test. She's 5'2 110lbs - but she passed.
That test is basic fitness and designed to be passable in the numbers that pass it -- 70-75% of all that try.
My wife is strong, at 5'3 110 had no trouble slugging around 30kg bags of gravel this spring - she might be able to kick and drag me down a flight of stairs, but no way could she do it going up. Personally I want my firefighters to be able to drag a 201lb man out of an inferno. Passing a CPAT test in no way suggests one could do that..
Man.....Western society embarrasses the **** out of me with this stuff.
Might as well write an article that says "THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH WOMEN IN THE ARMY FIGHTING WARS!" and omit the PTSD, death, dismemberment, war horrors, etc. given to a "privileged male gender" that is physiologically physically much more capable than a woman in such a "glorious" profession /sarcasm
You're assuming they even made it to the front line. They would use everything in their power to not go.
Because it's much easier to virtue signal from the comfort of your home/computer/safe town than it is to go into an actual conflict zone...

The cries that it's different are from men who either can't read and believe urban myths, or from men who feel emasculated that women can be as tough as men.
But the Europeans wouldn't have caught the hint. They'd decimate the population down to zero for being truly savage and against God. There would be none left.

The mountains of Epirus doesn't allow for traditional military convoys of supplies. So women lugged them to the front, and carried injured men back to safety.
Sure there are plenty of women who couldn't do what they did, or what women firefighters do. But I'll be the first to admit neither can I.
The Women of Epirus: Unsung Heroines of the Greco-Italian War
The women of Epirus were heroines of the Greco-Italian War and they did not hesitate to give all their food even to the horses of the army.

It isnt an urban myth. Men are physically larger, stronger, have more muscle mass etc Traits that are required when dragging or carrying a body out of a burning building.It is the same test.

None of my male relatives (from Epirus) who fought the Italians deny what their women did, infact they celebrated it. They would have never won without them and they knew it better then anyone.
And if these men are to be believed, perhaps these women lugging men and supplies are the reason Germany's war was over before it started so to speak.
I'll let the guys worried about women firefighters simmer over this for a while.
Funny all this concern about female firefighters when only <5% (1% in this article The $30-million question: Should Hamilton firefighters be responding to the same medical calls as paramedics? | Ontario Association of Fire Chiefs) of firefighter calls relate to fires, majority are medical issues and vehicle accidents.
Sad about the bicyclists. 50 + years ago they probably would have made it. Unfortunately the extremists have taken over.You're assuming they even made it to the front line. They would use everything in their power to not go.
