The U.S. Army's policy for assigning female soldiers is
significantly more challenging to implement in the era of
persistent warfare. The problem is that the Army policy needs to be
revised because the more recent Office of the Secretary of Defense
women's assignment rule, the challenges in 21st century security
environment, and the adaptations in tactics and force structure
make the existing policy open to interpretation by commanders and
open to public criticism. Thus, the primary research question is:
How should the Army Policy for the Assignment of Female Soldiers be
revised in order to address the modern battlefield? Four areas were
studied. First, the current Army policy was examined in order to
determine potential gaps between lower and higher policies. Next,
the researcher studied the system of assignment to verify that
women were place according to the policy understanding. The third
area of study focused on identifying unique characteristics of the
irregular battlefield including specific differences in the
security environment. Finally, the researcher determined how the
environment caused the Army to adapt to the dangers. The researcher
applied the information gathered to each section of the potential
gaps identified in the assignment policy and made recommendations
for potential revisions to policy and training.
