sisters in arms

            In the article Sisters in Arms by James Dao he talks about for the most part women in the military and basically how women have evolved in the military as time goes on. They started off as just helping the men in the military from their homes like raising money and getting supplies. Then the women started going deeper in to the military like helping in the medical field, intelligence officers, military police, and a lot of other jobs. Now in the year of 2013 they are lifting the ban on combat from women so now women are going to be allowed to enlist in the army and go out the and fight like men do and die like men do. Some people agree with women being in the army saying things like it equality, the best person to do a job could be a women, and plus other countries been let women fight in the army alongside men. The people who are against women being in army say women are not strong enough and don’t have the mentality to kill they’re just not ruthless. I don’t really like the whole idea of women being in the army I think they should just leave it up to the men, but if that’s what the women really want to do I guess its ok because when I think of women I think of my mom and I would never want my mother in anybody’s army. In a sense it’s good for American women to get the equal rights to be in the real army like combat fighting like men that’s a good part about it.
