With the way modern warfare is conducted today, specifying a difference between front line and anywhere else in theatre is kind of ridiculous. We no longer line them up and blow them down, thank dog. This way at least the women put in harm's way will get paid and acknowledged as such.

Do I want ME doing this? Certainly not, and neither do you (the gun would be too heavy, to say nothing of all the other tremendous strength they need). But women who volunteer and complete the training should be allowed to do the work.
