Although there are female figures available for most nations (though
does
anyone know what a femail Kra'Vak looks like?) I am sceptical about the
New
Isreali and Islamic Federations (are there any female IF figures?)
employment of female troopers. Partly on Religious grounds (Particularly
IF)
but I seem to remember that the Israeli Defence Force did employ female
front line soldiers and has since withdrawn them becase "Unnaceptable
things
happened" when female soldiers were captured.
Anyone put me right?
