Influential Women In The Military
Women soldiers
In the military, women have played an important role in history. Not only support the troops, but standing next to male soldiers, ready to fight. Over 9,000 women have been wounded in Vietnam and more than in hospital care (Wilson, 1996). September 2005, an estimated 203,000 active duty in the U.S. military (U.S. Department of Commerce, 2007, Department of ¶ 24) working women. While some do not believe women should be first in line, with women in the military has helped build one, more integrated force, the fight against
Vietnam War and other
When Pearl Harbor was attacked the army did not have enough male soldiers to fill certain positions, but has not made a direct hit. The job is to support the military (MOS) skills. Many of these instruments work, nurses, staff and laundry workers. The government finally decided to allow women to these positions as they were in the war to fight against. Many in the civilian sector, but some were sent abroad, some women die in World War II and Vietnam.
Vietnam is a remarkable breakthrough for women in all the armed forces. Women in the Marine Corps, Air Force, Navy and Army. In what was then left Vietnam War, 7,500 women completed (Holm, 1982, chapter trip abroad. 16). Hundreds of operations in Panama in 1989, causing the enemy of women in the implementation of fuel (Wilson, 1996, ¶ 6) and resupply mission when the mission was shot down. These tasks are not considered combat missions.
Women during the Gulf War in 1990-1991 a large number. Over 40,000 (Ghajar, neodymium, ¶ 
women said that in the war between Kuwait and Iraq service. These women have set up women’s stage history, set a record. Today, women opposed to terrorism war service overseas has contributed to the success of military women.
In the war against terrorism has brought together men and women. Non-confrontational, but fighting with the other sex as a powerful force. Even excluding military women in Iraq and Afghanistan to fight, many women found the risk of their own at some point. The war has made outstanding achievements of women, and has conducted many successful missions.
Achievement
Well deserved credit for the military has made men and women. Women, who help in the Revolutionary War, was the first pension. These women, not yet considered the army, has been recognized as the “development and water” in the field (Wilson, 1996, female soldiers “first” and their story) soldiers. Women have been recognized regardless of the small pension, veterans today women enjoy the same benefits and pensions of male soldiers. But few have as much money as men.
The only women have won the country’s highest honor, the Medal of Honor is a professor of surgery at Mary Walker Civil War. She received the medal, Congress finally passed its cause is not yet fully aware now. After his death, President Carter “to restore his medal” (Wilson, 1996). There are many women “Purple Heart” is the oldest, the first military award.
Purple Heart is awarded to soldiers who were killed or wounded in combat, directly with the enemy. Purple Heart award is an honor and praise. Price of honor and glory, but it must be classified, it is worthy of respect.
Recently, the first woman to be awarded four-star rank of general. Is the highest military rank. Ann Dunwoody for promotion to army general in November 2008, the transfer of women police officers (CNN, 2008) perspectives. The women in the various ministries and the military.
Army noncommissioned officers (NCO) is considered the army “backbone”. These soldiers of the rank of officer training to fight beside them and guide them through their own struggle. Only a few exceptions of women non-commissioned officer records, but many who served. Claims sergeant, the Army is that they conduct their next fight frontline soldiers. Women participated in a long tradition of NCO. Female NCOs showed they can do what is right and core strength.
Even if more men were outstanding Award, the women do the same work together. physical training standards, and may be different, but the soldiers work together for the mission accomplished.
Military feminization
Many people will say, women do not belong to the army or front, because the obvious physical differences. A woman can wear a person with the same weight? Then a woman, according to his entourage running?
For different physical standards for military help to provide a fair assessment of female recruits. Some female soldiers able to perform, then the men and soldiers, some even carrying heavy loads over long distances than men. These standards are in place to help women overcome their differences. Although there are no soldiers trained to the same standards.
In joint training environment, perhaps a bit strict language and the efforts of sexual harassment. The women accepted the men in the same region, and to give an accurate assessment. Send harassment hard training unit online sexual and political equality of opportunity. In the implementation of these policies remain a unit, women are not accepted for training (in the military “time, women ¶ 7) a list of the battery. These units are considered as those who will be sent directly to the woman who is fighting.
One unit, and directly in the fight against the soldiers need support, they support: the criminal, civil police, medical, military, civil affairs, engineers and signals. Women are allowed in all the services and support for the war with combat troops. support elements will be involved in the task will be placed on the front of the woman. Despite the military does not recognize a woman as a combat support MOS, a soldier in the dangerous line soldiers to fight and fight.
Views on Women in the Army
combat readiness of women soldiers is a long debate. There are many because the emotional needs of women, not on the battlefield. Some people say that women are a distraction on the battlefield and the men and women and men can not carry the same load.
Today, the service units to support the complete dangerous missions, countless women every day. The military units against women online service (Infantry) (Norris, 2007, ¶ 4), but women are a special part of the unit itself. In the war against terrorism has brought about new threats, female suicide bombers.
Muslim faith, it is difficult to find Muslim women well male soldiers who may hide important information or weapons. Design of a group of military women, usually belonging to a military police force to combat troops search task, to help women. The “Leones” Facts have proved that the ground war, a very important role to play (Solaro, 2006, chap. 3).
expressed respect for these women to help the Muslim faith and terrorism, the war is very important. In the first line of this work, and many women in these units of these women that their combat with the enemy. These women know all to well the impact of the war, and experience. Similarly, the military does not want to admit on the first line, where they are.
Our history tells us that, regardless of a person’s race, religion or sex, they can succeed in this country. A woman may also risk males. An African American woman to lead the company itself. And a Muslim, black women could work the same.
Like many women and men who fought with the ethnic and religious war, to prove that the United States. This allows our enemies know that the United States are of equal of our shortcomings. The military can not recognize as the first line of women’s politics, but more clearly in women overseas. Their direct participation in combat and fighting alongside male soldiers, they are just as important is the victory of the war. A British writer Virginia Woolf said: “As a woman, I have not a single country. China, as a woman, my whole world. ”
