I salute your daughter for serving bravely in Iraq. But just because women are in combat, doesn't mean they should be. Call me old fashioned, but I think only men should be in harms way. If they are in hand-to-hand combat with men, women are at a distinct disadvantage. If they are captured, they are certain to be raped or worse. It is a sad commentary that we have to put women in situations where they are exposed to enemy fire, but the only solution I see to to have another draft--something that isn't likely to happe soon.
