I know Ron, that's what I always keep in mind when people start DEMANDING to be sent into combat... on the other hand, I believe the female Marines and Army do train these days with shoulder arms (maybe other stuff too for all I know), not sure what AF & Navy do about weapons training anymore... when I was in I don't recall SEEING a female on the bases except maybe at the hospital, or civilians at the BX.
I figure though, if a unit was isolated, had females in it and was attacked severely the women would know how to use the weapons and their help would come in handy... something like that... it's hard to talk about without seeming to insult ladies, which I don't mean to do.
