Ground Zero

The Gender Wars in the Military

Author: Linda Bird Francke
ISBN: 9780684809748

Harassment at the military academies and in the services has signaled a call by their opponents for women to retreat, but it has been taken by their advocates as a mandate to challenge the male culture. The cultural issue revolves around not whether women can perform combat roles, but whether they should. Linda Bird Francke writes about women who have served and died in combat zones and about women who have been driven out of the services and the elite military academies.
