The current policies of Western Governments, particularly the UK
and the US, exclude the use of women from service in combat arms.
This restriction causes challenges when the combat units are
required to undertake COIN and nation-building missions in
countries with diverse cultural requirements. The front lines have
moved and women are no longer solely in the rear echelons and are
often required to assist security forces on patrols. Within
Southern Afghanistan, the requirement for the Royal Air Force
Regiment to patrol the Ground Defence Area around Kandahar Air
Field brings them into contact with the local Pashtun population
