IMHO, this is a non topic.

The reason being that in todays modern combat the front lines are everywhere. Anybody & everybody is the theather of operations are a target [so well as those of us back home]. So whether or not we like it thwy [women] are in combat! Now the next question being should they be in jobs that could be possibly take them in to the area of operations or direct combat operations? I have to say no. Most women do not have the upper body strength to do the job [sorry about that ladies, but that is the way GOD had made you all] whereas men have more upper body mass for such jobs.Does that make it correct to do this, I do not know but that is the way of things. Once again IMHO the women in uniform should be in jobs that keep them out of harms way. There are a lot of different jobs that they do much better than men, and I am not trying to a sexist here either, but the last thing a man going off to war should hear is the sound of a woman on the radio directing assets to them, or providing aid and comfort to those who have returned from the scene of battle, plus a whole host of other jobs that I con not begin to speak of.
