Richard,
This is something that sparks my interest, from a historical perspective. Will have to use some spare time to research this topic more indepth, as it sounds facinating if accurate.
As far as the topic of Women in combat roles...can just say that when I began reading PS.com, I did not understand the argument. However, after learning from the QP's posts on the topic, it made sense to me! It is a No-Go.
And A6, Good Points!
