Women did not "fight" in Vietnam. They were not in any combat units serving as combatants. They were nurses and other support. They did a great service by mending our wounds, giving us comfort and being there in our support- God bless them all. They left their families and friends, traveled half way around the world , gave up all the comforts they could have had and put themselves in harms way- all for the American soldier. They were a rare breed of women....
