How can women see combat?
I ship to boot camp Oct. 13. I know all infantry, artillery, tank and assault amphibious vehicle specialties are closed to females. But I don’t want to be left on the sidelines because of my sex. I’m trying to find out what sort of jobs there are for females that still involve any sort of combat.

Talk to your recruiter. You will need to compare your line scores from the ASVAB to the programs available.

If you want to get dirty, become a human intelligence specialist, or interpreter/translator.

Try military police, counter intel or linguist.
