Back to Rahab in the old testament.

In WW2 women served in the most dangerous roles imaginable in the British intelligence services and OSS.

Some of them were tortured to death or died in the camps.

Those women served in combat positions when women weren't "permitted" to serve in combat.

That is the point I am making.
