WACs & WAVEs did the same thing they did in WWII; supported the US fighting men. Primary functions were administrative and medical (nurses).
In the Military Medical system they were not only dedicated, they were inspirational.
From WWII until the end of the Vietnam War, women were part of the US Army's WAC (Women's Army Corps); US Navy WAVE's (Women Allowed Volunteer Emergency service); etc. After Vietnam came the all volunteer military and the WACs and WAVEs were abolished in about 1975. Today-the US military has transitioned into a military/law enforcement force (effective 1990s) and is a equal opportunity employer.
During the Vietnam War, WWII, etc. all US military women were either WACs, WAVES, or WAFs.
American military women were auxiliaries in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. They were not authorized to be combatants and were part of the WACs, WAVEs, and WAFs. Equal employment came after the Viet War when the WACs/WAVEs/etc. were disbanded and the all volunteer military came into being. American military females have fought in Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, and other US military operations. But WWI, WWII, Korea and the Vietnam Wars were strictly fought by men.

Women were volunteers.
As in Korea and WWII, women in Vietnam were volunteers in both the military and civilian employment, with the majority of their effort addressed to the medical field.
Women serve with honor and distinction in the military forces of a great number of nations.
The soldiers there kind of stayed and married women there and they gave birth to vietnam-americans.

I don't believe anyone, male or female, should be required to serve a military organisation.
Anyone 18 or over. Military service is required for males when they turn 18. They are allowed to do civil service if they do not wish to serve in the military but this takes longer. Women are not required to serve.
women did not have equal rights and we thout women should not go to war.
Serve a certain time in the military
It is most critical for our military to have, Men and women can both serve their country in each branch of the military.
