Women want combat rules changed
Four servicewomen and the American Civil Liberties Union have sued the U.S. Defense
Department hoping to end a ban on women in combat. They claim it's discriminitory
and modern warfare has already put women in combat. The ACLU argued in federal court
in Northern California Tuesday that the military policy barring women from combat
just because of their gender was unconstitutional. The Pentagon says it's examining
the expansion of roles for women in the U.S. military.
