Sure enough, a majority of the soldiers featured in closeups were women.

Something like 40% of todays Army is women. In some local National Guard outfits, 50% of those activated for support roles are women. I could be wrong but I think your head is stuck in the past. I for one, honor all who serve.

I didn't realize the percentage of women in some units was so high. I'm sure we all honor all who serve, but if in fact the footage was intentionally edited to over-represent women and minorities it would bother me.
