You’re telling me — I can never figure out the round-abouts! But then I’ve lived in the UAE, Bahrain and India — none of them is like the UK or US!

Many women served in the AK during the Nazi occupation.

It’s even more exciting for me of course, as from my POV, I’m sitting in the wrong side of the car, changing gear with the wrong hand and driving on the wrong side of the road...

This woman, for example:

Elżbieta Zawacka


She was the only woman among Cichociemni

And today's equivalent of Cichociemni is GROM

Here you can see the badge of GROM


And this is the badge of Cichociemni

One of the main arguments against women in combat is that there is a chance of fraternization and men being protective of women or favoring certain women.

This all contributes to decreasing morale and unit effectiveness.

Similar arguments are made against openly gay people serving in combat.

Either these arguments are valid and both women and gays should be kept out of combat, or they are invalid and both women and openly gay people should be allowed in combat.

Of course you could have all heterosexual woman combat units, but I don't think there're are enough women who want to go into direct combat to make many units.

My German Language High School teacher told us one day that he was in the Luftwaffe. He was in the first wave of planes that bombed Russia. At some point he ended up as a prisoner of the Russians. He said that to get food, they would throw the dead bodies of other German soldiers over the wall at the camp. When the wolves came to eat the bodies, the other soldiers would jump the fence and fight and kill the wolves with their bare hands and then eat them.

Yeah, but they’re not the main ones at all.

Wasn’t there three or four famous sniper gals that decimated the areas they controlled?

The bald chick is almost hot.

Can’t deal with Chrome Dome on a woman though.

Unless she interrogated me. Gently

lizol, thank you for these links.

This is a part of WW2 I knew very little about.

The Polish people are a brave people.

I hope that the USA and Poland will always be friends. When Sarh Palin becomes President, she will undo the betrayal of the closet Muslim who inhabits the White House.

What are the main ones?

There was a major post recently where this was the major issue.

If unit cohesion, morale, etc. is not the main issue then what is?
