Two women who had been attempting to enter the U.S. Air Force's combat controller and pararescue career fields since last fall were recently reclassified into other jobs after not meeting the rigorous battlefield airman standards.

Military.com reported in March that the two women, not identified for privacy reasons, had completed the Special Warfare Preparatory Course and were eligible for the next Assessment and Selection (A&S) course. But they were not selected to continue, according to 1st Lt. Jeremy Huggins, a spokesman for Air Education and Training Command's Special Warfare Training Wing.
