There is a front line in todays battle field?

have yet to see a female in an infantry unit. The closest I have personnaly seen them is in communication units, which is usually well out of harms way.
There in the infantry now too, at least in the army. There is and has been females in the mech inf units on Fort Hood for years now, over the last couple years there starting to head into the infantry units as well, not as infantry just support roles but still the infantry's support is right with them.

My last unit was 100% mental health professionals and they were over there in fire fights and doing patroles with the MP's / infantry and there 90% officers and 80% females. So in todays "modern" battle field yes women are in harms way. Heck even the cooks are out doing patroles now.


Women have been pushing for equil rights for many years now, for anyone to say this should happen cause there women is setting that movment back decades. I wish every day it was me over there and not my wife, but she keeps telling me this is the way its sopose to be, equil means equil not equil sometimes.
