Besides aviation, the combat role I think women could be most suited for is certain SOF roles.
I don't mean on ODAs - I don't think women belong on a sure enough rucksack team - but, as I mentioned, the OSS and SOE employed numerous women agents in occupied Europe with parachute insertions, espionage, sabotage, partisan liasons, etc., being done by women at times. All of this put them in position for death or capture. I also believe women could be suited for certain counter terrortist roles.
Besides, if you get a couple of gals who look like the ones protrayed in
Where Eagles Dare how could you not be for it?
