Depopulate the U-crane so land may be bought cheap by Big Ag and hedge funds like Blackrock.
I think the Kazarians want their land back too. |

Ukraine has been using medics for awhile, if you’re implying infantry, I’ve looked into it and not seen anything to substantiate it. Ukraine also claimed Russia would draft women. The reality as I posted last year is 40 to 60 year old men are fighting on both sides and that will happen in a war with China for the USA too. S Korea and Japan already have 50 year olds in their peacetime military due to birth rates.

Funny how the russians are talking like they are at war because of the Ukries.

ukrainian women fighting and dying for their country more balls than some here -- no doubt the irony is thick |

The guys filming were Russian i assume? When will they start conscripting females?
Stupid war created by politicians. |

Not a Ukraine or Russia specific problem - it’s a everywhere but Africa, Afghanistan, India {Muslim minority} and central America problem due to birth rates combined with other issues compounding staffing issues in most of the East Asia, Europe, North America world

This article on women in Ukraine military like all the ones before makes no mention of infantry, overwhelming support roles, so could be truck drivers, medics, drone, etc caught up at front line
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/08/world/europe/ukraine-war-army-women.html So far medical are the only ones being conscripted Attached File Attached File |

There have been a number of online memorials for uniformed women on both sides, mostly medics. Lots of Russian HQ's have been whacked, there have been a number of female clerks (and bed warmers) killed.
There are a handful of Ukrainian women in active combat, for instance a woman Stugna ATGM gunner was recently posting about transitioning to FPV kamikaze drone pilot. Seems a couple of their snipers are women. Pretty sure 99.9something%+ of leg infantry is male though. |

Are the Russians lamenting that they didn't get to rape them first?

View Quote If we can be completely honest about it, which I doubt, the Russians are thinking it’s pretty shitty that there’s women in war is how I took it. You can tell they thought it was fucked up. In fact, they said so. |

I have seen a few posts of women on or near the front line for Ukraine and most appear to be medics or support staff of some kind. Would not surprise me if both sides had women up there based on past experiences in that region.
Looking more like the Volksstrum of 1945. |

Certainly at the start there were female soldiers on the Ukrianian side.
Honestly I would expect mrs Iggy1337 to be right in the middle of the fighting should say ze Germans/French/Spanish ect get sporty again. Ukrainian Female Soldier – No Helmet, No Armor, No Problem |

Seems like the few who volunteer for combat are given roles with ranged weapons, which is a reasonable compromise. But recent video of Ukrainian mobile AA guntruck teams still shows them all male, and that's the kind of quasi-combat role they'd push women into if they were desperate for manpower. Female or mixed gender AA crews were fairly common in WWII - Britain, Russia, Finland, Germany.

I easily spend $800 or so with my sons flight lessons and events in CAP. Same when my daughter was a competitive cheerleader. Not many people can afford a four kid family like I did. Now imagine that child you raised and put your life and savings in, do you really want that child to be a bullet sponge? I raised three kids that were and are in the military. Not many are raising kids for the military or to fill jobs. When folks can barely make their now $2k a month mortgage they won't be having kids. |

Just to clarify, a RF soldier is cursing a dead female Ukr soldier in a trench.

Just in the last 3 or 4 years did I bother to send a copy of my DD214 to Stryker. There are quite a few here that have served but don't have the badge listed. |

It would be surprising if there were no female volunteers on the RF side so the title was a bit ambiguous.
if not on the front lines, then at least in the support capacity. |

View Quote And honestly, as "warfare" the PRC would be better off undermining & destabilizing the DPRK in a manner to force reunification with the ROK. And economically hamstring the ROK (US & West too) for decades with the recovery effort, even worse than when the FRG reunited with the GDR. And just move the DMZ up to the Yalu river. And the Jong regime & DPRK know it. And while 100% unspoken, their nuclear weapons program is partially for the benefit of Beijing, to keep the CCP from trying it. |
