I thought women weren't in the fighting.

Technically, they're not. But when one is dealing with terrorist cowards hiding behind tombstones, women and children, every inch of the country is the front line.

Women are not generally in "Combat Arms" positions in the Army. There are no women in Infantry, canon Field Artillery, or Armor. The Army does have women helicopter pilots.

While women are not in most direct combat units, support units in a combat zone do come under attack. Numerous supply convoys have come under attack.
