But was is 'troubling' about it? Even if they are officially in combat units, they are still on the front line in support roles. I am actually shocked there were only 70 women killed out of the some 3000 deaths. If women are going to play active roles in a war, some are going to be killed. That is the price to pay when you ask for more equality.
That's pretty much what I said. I don't have to support the concept of women in combat roles to recognize that it is happening, and with a 360 degree combat zone, it will continue.
