350,000 women in the US served in World War 2. Other countries had women in their forces too. Not all the women went to the front because some had to stay back home to care for the wounded, shuttle planes, do the work the soldiers left at the bases and other chores. But, most went to all the fronts. They did everything except fight in the battles. Hats off to the women who served.
