Mainly nures.

Now I am not a historian or anything but I have learned a significant amount about ww2 over the years. Women's primary role was support, as women were not authorized to be in combat. Broadly speaking they filled the roles of nurses and administrative personel. Be sure to relaize how hugely important their contribution was, I mean so many more people would have died and the war could not even function without their efforts.
