Fact or Fiction on this one, but at least tradition holds that the Marine Corps has always mandated weapons training as part of its training program for Women Marines or as they were once derisively called,BAMS. The prescribed regulations about what constitutes qualification may have been altered over time, but certainly a basic knowledge of individual and crew served weapons is and will remain a part of being a Marine.
Enlisted Women Marines were not required to qualify with the service rifle until 1985. They had previously received familiarization training on weapons but did not qualify and therefore did not rate marksmanship badges. The course of fire that makes up the USMC qualification course has changed over the years. However, either you fire it and get enough points to qualify or you don't. There is and never has been any gray area about what constitutes qualification.
