Ah, I was confused I thought you were going to serve. It is up to you of course, women in the military is a thorny issue. I hope you do not find yourself regreting what you decide. Isreal is in a tenious situation right now and can use all the help it can muster for certain.

Honestly, even if I did serve combat, which I wouldn't, I don't think I'd be of much use. Many girls get out of it easily for that reason, which is just an added thing that makes me angry.

See from everything I've read. As a woman, if I was going to choose to serve in any military in the world, the Israeli Army is the one I'd pick.

And you are wrong Raia it takes 3-5 people in the army behind the scenes in non combat positionsfor every single actual combat position. The number may be slightly lower for the Israeli army but it is pretty uniform the world over, because supply lines are supply lines and beuracracy is beuracracy.

And inefficeny is inefficency. So you're going to be in your home in the US? If so, then we have to talk! I might be passing by that area, and would really, really appreciate a place to board for a week or so.

...and...about your situation...

I'm sorry.
