Women_In_The_Draft

Women In The Draft War is a permanent topic all around the country in our homes, yet the draft has been the topic in Congress. Congress reintroduced the military draft but after extensive debate it was turned down (Brody). In the midst of debating whether or not to reinstate the draft, the question of whether the women should be included in the draft is up in the air. Personally, I believe that women should be included in the draft, since we’re all considered equal, women should be obligated to register with Selective Services just as the men are. There might be a need for women out in the field, according to Region Director Col. Keith Scraggs, “could be a likely scenario if we have a shortage of medical folks and this thing drags out,” (Betsch). On the topic of the current war taking place in Iraq, Brodsky said, “Looking at the numbers of medical personnel required, the time frames and the kinds of skills required-it would have to include women,” (Betsch). I believe that women can be very helpful on the medical field. Once women are in the military they are very restricted. Women are excluded from a numerous amount of different services (Women).
