Military universities have advantages because it is all paide for by the u.s government but you must serve in the military for 5 years. a regular college is nice so you don;t have to deal with drill instructors. You can also join a rotc unit at most colleges to get free tuition but you still have to serve in the military.
Women should join the military for their own personal convictions and reasons. There is no proper answer to this question. It may be the same reasons that a man joins the military. It may be for money, patriotism, or glory. Women should challenge themselves and do what they want to do, men as well. We should stop separating ourselves from each other, we are all human beings and citizens of the world.
They did not serve "combat" positions, however they did serve in dangerous roles as nurses and in other non combat military occupations. Most women in the military during WWII were used to free up jobs in the US, to allow for more Men to go overseas to fight. The largest role of women during WWII was leaving the home to take over jobs for men as they went off to war, by doing so, they ran factories, made bombs, equipment and kept our country running while the boys were off at war. The above answer applies to the United States only. Soviet women werein actual "combat" in various capacities (pilots, snipers, etc.).
Most women take non-combatant responsibilities, as medics, traffic regulators, radio operators etc. Some of women were pilots or snipers. USSR never forces women to serve in army, but many volunteered, especially if their families were killed or enslaved by Nazis.
It is most critical for our military to have, Men and women can both serve their country in each branch of the military.

You stated US Army- in what might be called the most hazardous duty end of this service available to women- the Women"s Army-AF Service Pilots- or WASPS, there was a total of 38 fatal accidents. One case- the body was never recovered and this Lady was delivering an armed A-36 assault plane. Obviously there were accidents on hospital ships ( Navy) and other transit crash events.

Women can do nearly anything in the military except for things that put them on the front lines ie: infantry and special forces. Also, with one exception, women are unable to serve aboard submarines.
Most American military women served in Vietnam primarily as nurses in the Army Nurse Corps and the Navy Nurse Corps, providing critical medical care to wounded soldiers. They also took on roles in administrative support, logistics, and communication, helping to facilitate operations and maintain the military infrastructure. While their contributions were significant, they often faced challenges such as limited recognition and the dangers associated with being in a combat zone. Overall, their service helped pave the way for future generations of women in the military.
