No, political correctness came after the war when the all volunteer military was created. From WWII to the Vietnam War females were not part of the fighting units; they had their own branch, the Women's Army Corps (WACs). The US Navy had the WAVES. These were support units, to relieve the men from support functions, which in turn would allow the men to fight the wars.
