The military is wanting them to integrate their Ground Combat troops by the end of the year. Jan crawford visited a group of marines testing the impact of men and women fighting side by side on the battlefield. Contact 300, fire. Reporter it may look like standard military training but here in california desert this group of marines could be making history. Its not necessarily for us specifically, but its for that one woman, that one female that joins out there that wants to do this eventually that shes given the opportunity to do it. Reporter Danielle Beck is one of more than 250 marines who volunteer for a grueling mission, an unprecedented scientific experiment that will help the pentagon decide whether women can fight on the front lines. You think there are women who could be just as effective in infantry. Yes. Yes, maam. Have you seen some here . Yes, maam. Yes, maam. About 7 of the marine corps is nowwomen. Many already serve in combat in support position bus some jobs are limited to men like the charging infantry. The forefront of the battle. Thats where the rubber meeting the road. Were supported by a cast of amazing marines that make us able to do our job, but the infantry is where we win battles. Infantry marines are trained to fight in close combat to search out and destroy the enemy. The question is whether it should be open to women. Thats what this group of marines will help determine. They made it through intense specialized training to get here, a marine base called 29 palms. For months of simulated battle. Packed with more than 100 pounds of equipment and weapons. Gun fights with live ammunition working as a unit to overcome obstacles achlt throughout researchers watch and record their performance. Each woup f these black dots represents a shot we have detected in an around the target. Scientist paul johnson helped develop the testing. Each marine is equipped with hightech gps detectors to measure accuracy and heart rate monitors to see how they react. Look at the physical characteristics. Maybe its heights, Upper Body Strength lower body strength. Maybe its your heart efficiency. What physical characteristics really lead you to be good in these jobs. That data would help them deseed what women would be able to help and what physical standards apply to men and women. Theyre all capable of performs the tasks. The question is can they do them to the same level as their male counterparts. So this is a look alt not only can the women actually perform but how their performance affectings the group as a whole. Thats correct. Its as close to war as they can get. Theyll encounter situations they would encounter like rescuing a fallen comrade at the end of an exhausting battle. This dummy called corp recall carl is 174 pounds the weight of the average marine. Theyll have to get corporate carl off the field. Thats right. They have to get him to some kind of medevac point. Women in combat said it could disrupt the cohesion of this t unit but the marines said thats not an issue. They all know how to work together. The training and passing the physical standards. There should be no reason to not trust the marine to the left or right of you. Im looking at it not only do i have my brother in arm but my sister in arms that i have to protect as well. Reporter for the women the physical part has been the challenge. Theyre smaller and on average about 30 pounds lighter than the men but in combat they have to carry the same amount and be equal. Its the pace. We can carry the weight but we have males with 6 feet longer strides and its hard to catch up with them, keep up with them. That do not think marines should lower standards for women. On that point there is wide agreement. You have to perform. If you cant show up ready to go physic will and mentally we dont just lose a game. We dont just not make a sale. Lives are at stake. Thats why this is so important to the infantry and the infantry as a whole for the next 20 30r years. But the women say few would want these roles. It takes a special woman, a special dreesh a special heart, a special mindset to do this. Its the same for men. Its a sense of pride. I started this. Im definitely going to try to fin irn. I dont want to quit just because its hard. Staying the course for the few in the future. Jan crawford cbs news california. Its have interesting the approach. Its interesting.

Ive got one here. You have a card swieb their plugs into your phone like someone using a credit card reader. You swipe it and they length you select anymore this different ways. Sometimes you use your home. This one you can tap on the presets. Oh, wow. How much does that thing cost because wed have to buy that and does it work on all phones . You have to buy the card. There are three or four Different Companies and the cards have batdryes in them so eventually theyll run down. Most are l have iphone apps and android. That includes a lot of people using phones. One of the big concerns is security. How secure are these smart cards . People are concerned with anything. In this case youre swiping your cards into your own phone and thats where the data is kept. Just like apple pay, they will send a temporary number to a vendor or somebody youre buying from and you dont have the card numb borne the card itself. So you have a little bit of extra security that way. So its more safe. In a sense. If you give it to a waiter or the store and they walk away and come back, theres no credit card number they can copy. After so many profile hacks like target and home depot, we keep hearing about microchip technology. Does it have it in there . Credit cards are changing. Theyve got a chip in front. By later this year stores are going to be required to have the machines that you dip the card into rather than swipe it. These first gen real smart cards dont have that. All the stores have different ideas. If youre investing now, you may have to replace it in a year or so. Thats coming but its not here yet. You mentioned apple pay. Is this a competitor to apple pay . In the future youre going to pay for it. Its something strictly on your phone. You use your finger print on it or its Something Like this where its one card or one device. Apple pay is very convenient but you need to have an i phone and be a store that accepted apple pay. Its about time. It would be so nice to getry rid of so many clunky things. The most archaic thing is carry around these leather things. I cant believe were still doing that now in 2015.

Im starting to wonder if ill be the next victim. People think its a fishing show. Its really not. Its a detective story. At that point you fweefbt peoples attention and its up to you to find out what it is. You nearly died. A couple of times. Youve caught mill lair ya. Youve been in a plane crash. Minutes into the flight the engine fails. Did you ever think at one time maybe i need to hang this up. I have thought that but i think in my case its the curiosity that overrides that and the sense of achievement that you get when something is difficult. And from the way its taken off, i can tell its big. On television hes achieved star status but todays accomplishment in some ways is much bigger. Teaching me how to fish. Try to hold the rod very still so any movement is not you but the other end. Reporter wade says a combination of luck and preparation help put fish on the end of hiss line sometimes almost as if on cue and today is no different. Thats a lovely fish.

I think most important it can change the food net. Frankly we dont know enough about what those species are doing and their impact. Do we let this one go do you think . Wade takes pride in teaching moments like this throughout his show, but for most fans its all about the adrenaline. One of the things that were doing new this season is im going more under water.

I dont have to go anywhere move my car, fold my blankets on somebodys couch and people can come visit us here instead of us sleeping somewhere. There are 73 subcy dieds town homes in the complex. It cost 15 million to refurbish paid for by the volunteers of america. The veterans pay rent on a sliding scale.
