“I always read that the concept of women in direct combat was discarded after 1948.”

This is an experiment. And limited to border forces, well into the interior of Israel.

I am a reserve pilot and recently returned to the states after deployment. The females do exceptionally well as pilots.

Just goes to show that their IG report that the IDF was in no shape to prosecute war is correct.

I find this shameful and hope the days of putting women in the front lines ends soon.
