Why are women allowed in the Military?
Because it would be sexist not to allow them in the military.
What are the rules regarding women in the US military?
From WWII until the end of the Vietnam War, women were part of the US Army's WAC (Women's Army Corps); US Navy WAVE's (Women Allowed Volunteer Emergency service); etc. After Vietnam came the all volunteer military and the WACs and WAVEs were abolished in about 1975. Today-the US military has transitioned into a military/law enforcement force (effective 1990s) and is a equal opportunity employer.

A person who is not a member of the military or the police force.
Were women allowed at the Olympics?
Women were not allowed to compete personally. Married women were not allowed to attend the games because of a penalty of death, although maidens were allowed to attend.
Do you honor police on Veterans Day?
Absolutely not unless they served in the military. No, simply because a police officer may on occasion encounter a violent situation, it does not make them a military veteran. When the going gets tough the police can quit where as the military person must go on and do their best under the worst of conditions. The military is not represented by a union. Military spend time away from their loved ones. Military sacrafice a normal life. I realize many police consider themselves para-military but they are simply.....police. Not members of the military. If police with no military service want to be called vets or want to join vetrans organizations or be honored a veterans........join the military.
