Maybe, but it sure won't fly in today's America.
Since Vietnam all we have heard is equal rights, equal pay, equal everything. Females are now cops, fire fighters etc...
If they want to draft the young men, they'll have to draft the young women too. Just no way around it.
Just exactly who is pushing putting women on the front lines?
I know Chelsea and the Bush daughters will not end up on the front lines.
Women are smaller than men and they are not as good at fighting as men. Putting women on the front lines only makes sense to deluded feminists and people who get their jollies from watching poor women come home in body bags.
