I am reserching a paper in supporting woman to be in combat. I have encounter several quetions as bellow: 1. There is always a chance to be captured by the enemy and woman ****might be raped in that situation,is there any solution to this problem? 2. Would it be very distracting in a coed unit? 3. Would men think that they will have more responsibility because they will have****to take care of women who are fighting together with themin the same unit?4. How about the mother's role of a woman?I would really appreciate if any of you, who has moreexperience than me could give me your valuable comments.Thanks!

Hi there, my name is Deidra and I was in the USN during the last war. On question number one I want you to know that there are many, many rapes that occur in our own military. a woman faces that every day in the military. I would think that a rape by the enemy under those circemstances( i mispelled that word because the computer won't let me send the letter with c u m in there, it says it is offensive, really strange) would be easier for a woman to come to terms with because she knows that it is war and she knows what might happen. i'm sure men are raped by the enemy also. I know for a fact that they are in the US military by fellow soldiers. I myself was raped while in training at millington, tennessee. NAS millington.**I almost immediately forgot that experience for five years. it is very hard to deal with the sexual assualts and discrimination and harassment that goes on in the services because women(at least i did) who are young go in with the ideal that things are regulated and fair in the military, more so than in civilian life, but in reality, that is untrue. studies that i have recently come across show that women are raped and assualted 10X more per hundred in the US military than in civilian life. The way the military is now, (or at least when i was in) it is a haven for violent male aggressors.2. a coed unit would only be distracting in correlation to the professionalism of the soldiers. a job is a job. maturity and responsibility is the real issue here. 3.you can never predict how a person will act in combat. i've seen men cry like babies because they were scared. I've seen women as calm as can be in the same situation. it depends on the person as to what they will do, not the sex. I really think that there will be just as many men not wanting to help a woman just because she is a woman.4.here, i am not quite understanding what you want to know. my mother would have the same feelings about my brothers going to war as she did me. ok, i think you mean, should a mother go to war? well, i think that one parent should remain home with a child, if there is only one, than that parent, man or woman, should stay. if their are two parents and both can go then the one who is needed most should go, after that, if they are both needed equally, then they, as a couple, should decide who goes.

There is a very simple solution of biblical principle and I think everyone knows what it is.**women are not warriors. women should accept the fact that they are not and move on. I am not anti-female, do not hate women, and I dont care what their accomplishments are in the recent arena of war. It is a place of reason that women and men of modern times refuse to visit. women are not warriors. the sad, simple truth. you can bash me all you like, and say what you will, but the fact remains and it is undeniable.

HOWEVER, i AM CURRENTLY ON THE irr DUE TO SOME MORAL ISSUES THAT HAVE ALWAYS CONFLICTED WITH ME PARTICIPATING IN OUR MILITARY.** i GRADUATED BASIC TRAINING, WENT TO AIT, AND WAS PLACED IN A UNIT HERE IN sT. pAUL, mn UPON GRADUATION.**hOWEVER, WHEN i ARRIVED AT MY RESERVE UNIT, IT DISSOLVED, SO i WENT A FEW MONTHS FLOATING FROM UNIT TO UNIT. i WENT TO AIT FOR HELICOPTER REPAIR, AND WHEN i FINALLY FOUND AN AVAILABLE POSSITION IN A NEARBY UNIT, i RECLASSED (UNOFFICIALLY, I NEVER WENT TO AIT FOR 88M COURSE) INTO A DRIVING UNIT IN bUFFALO, mn.****dURING ALL**OF THIS PROCESS, i BECAME MORE AND MORE UNHAPPY WITH OUR MILITARY.**oBVIOSLY THIS MILITARY DOESN'T CARE ABOUT ANY ONE INDIVIDUAL (IT'S FRUSTRATING TO SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN TO ANYONE, BUT IT'S EVEN MORE FRUSTRATING TO SEE OUR COMMANDERS PLACE SO LITTLE WORTH IN EACH INDIVIDUAL SOLDIER.**THEY DON'T LOOK AT US AS PEOPLE, THEY LOOK AT US A ASSETS, IT'S A BUSINESS WITH PEOPLE INVOLVED AS CURRENCY TO BE EXCHANGED AT WHATEVER RATE POSSIBLE TO GAIN MORE POWER), SORRY ABOUT THE RAMBLING.**aNYWAYS, WHEN I STARTED GETTING MORE AND MORE FETT UP WITH WHAT WAS HAPPENING TO MY POSITION, i DECIDED TO LOOK INTO SOME HISTORY OUR "HONORABLE" AND "POWERFUL" MILITARY IS A PART OF, AND IN MOST CASES WROTE.****** i WON'T GO INTO DETAIL, THERE IS WAY TOO MUCH TO NOTE, AND THOUSANDS UPON MILLIONS MORE INFORMATION THAT i HAVEN'T EVEN HEARD YET, HOWEVER SOME GOOD RESOURCE'S TO LOOK INTO (IF YOU HAVE EVEN A REMOTELY SLIGHT INTEREST) ARE:******** 1. The Fire This Time: U.S. Warcrimes in the time of war**************Author: Ramsey Clark**- Former U.S. Attorney General******** 2. U.S. Civil Liberties in The Time of War************ Author: (I don't have it front of me, I don't remember,************************ but I believe Ramsey Clark does have a foreward********************** in this book)******** 3.**Against Our Will: Men, Women, and Rape**************Author: Susan Brownmiller** The third title**of these three books is what brings me to the answers to your questions. This book was published in 1975 originally, and the Author has done a very extensive, and thorough report/insight**on the subject of rape during times of war, conflict, & revolution.**You yourself may want to look into this particular source, as it may help you determine answers (possibly different from my answers) to your questions above, and it may possibly help bring questions to answers may already believe as absolute, or topics you've never considered before. ** fIRST YOU ASK BY BEING A FEMALE IN COMBAT 1. There is always a chance to be captured by the enemy and woman ****might be raped in that situation,is there any solution to this problem? ****i'D SAY THE BEST SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM IS DON'T PARTICIPATE IN PHYSICAL COMBAT.**i'M NOT TALKING ABOUT FEMALES ONLY, I AM TALKING ABOUT everyone!**IF THERE WAS NO COMBAT, NEITHER MEN (I READ THE OTHER RESPONSE YOU RECEIVED, AND SHE HERSELF SEEMED TO WITNESS EVEN MEN BEING RAPED, ALTHOUGH i DON'T KNOW IF THAT IS TRUE), NOR WOMEN WOULD**BE RAPED, OR EVEN MURDERED FOR THAT MATTER. ****tHIS MAY SOUND A BIT IDEALISTIC, HOWEVER, I CHALLENGE ANY SOLDIER TO**HONESTLY QUESTION WHAT PEOPLE GAIN BY SUPPORTING OUR MILITARY. WHEN YOU COMPARE THAT GAIN, TO WHAT IS LOST BY PARTICIPATING IN A WAR, OR A MILITARY THAT IS ALWAYS PREPARING FOR IT'S NEXT CONFLICT (FRIENDSHIPS, FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS, AND IN MANY MORE CASES THAN ARE REPORTED, EVEN A PERSONS SANITY), THE NEGATIVE FAR OUTWIEGHS THE POSITIVE FOR US AS INDIVIDUALS.**(THAT'S ONLY LOOKING AT IT FROM A PERSONAL VIEW POINT.**tHERE IS THE ENVIRONMENT, OTHER PEOPLE/NATIONS/TRIBES/ETC., AND TO BRING TO A NEW LEVEL, EVEN OTHER BEINGS/ANIMALS THAT CO-EXIST WITH HUMANS DAILY.) aLSO, REALIZING THE MILITARY ONLY EXISTS BECAUSE ALL SOLDIERS PARTICIPATE IN IT'S VERY EXISTANCE (WHETHER IT;S A COMBAT mos, OR NON COMBAT mos), EMPOWERS AN INDIVIDUAL PERSON/SOLDIER ENOUGH TO**REALIZE THAT HIS PARTICIPATION IS THE VERY REASON WHY THE MILITARY CONTINUES TO GROW, OR CONTINUES TO CONTRIBUTE TO ALL ACTS OF UNNECESSARY VIOLENCE SUCH AS RAPE, MURDER, TORTURE, PSYWAR, ETC. ****aFTER REVIEWING ALL OF YOUR OTHER QUESTIONS, ALTHOUGH THEY CAN BE CONSIDERED GOOD QUESTIONS, i UNFORTUNATELY WOULD NOT HAVE AN APPROPRIATE ANSWER TO ANY OF THEM AT THIS TIME.**i HOPE READING THIS WASN'T A COMPLETE WASTE OF YOUR TIME, AND i ALSO APOLOGIZE FOR IT BEING UNORGANISED, BUT, i AM ON A LUNCH BREAK THAT ENDED ABOUT 10 MINUTES AGO, SO i'M TRYING TO WRAP IT UP.**gOODLUCK WITH YOUR STUDY, AND IF THERE ARE QUESTIONS OF OTHER MATERIALS THAT YOU MAY BE INTERESTED IN FINDING, FEEL**FREE TO E MAIL ME AT 62BICH@WASTE.ORG. i HAVE TONS OF BOOKS, AND PAMPHLETS NOT JUST THE ABOVE THREE SOURCES TO BASE MY REASONING OFF OF.**WITH RESPECT, tHOM yORK.**
