the women were taught some combat tequneques incase Australia ever got invaded, but they were never sent into the fighting in this war.

Answer 2

Women were not allowed in the Armed Forces prior to World War 2. There were some that served during World War 1, but upon the war's end, they were dismissed from the service. It took special legislation to get the women into the Reserves, limiting service until the end of hostilities. This was eventually changed and it wasn't until the mid-40's that women were allowed into the regular branches of the services. Women were not allowed in the Armed Forces prior to World War 2.
