"An Army review of the ban on women serving in close combat has concluded the change would not have an "adverse effect" on troop cohesion.

 
But further research is needed to assess the "physiological demands", the Ministry of Defence review said."
 
So Bohemia, females for ARMA 4 please? Also I really hope the physiological demands is a joke, 'cause I laughed.

A nice step forward, it has taken long enough, who are we or any other to deny anyone from serving their country as long as their ability and determination matches the high levels already exhibited by those already serving.

Secondly: BI, please give better character customisation, imagine the glory of a proper customisation screen with hundreds of possible combinations. *drool 

Edit: Fuck yeah, more of this and I predict a steady rise in morale.

In all honesty, this does not mean anything, women have been doing it for years, I spent 13 years in the army while I was in Iraq women went out on clearance patrols just as much as the next guy, the only difference is they can serve with the infantry on the front line, but women have been serving on the front for years with RHA and other units, they have been doing just as good as men.

If every singel army girl looks like that i will rejoin the army for sure.

I really wish arma would put in female character models. It just makes them look like they are trying to send a message tbh.

Doesn't make much difference at all to be fair, as Fuel explained - it's simply a ban on infantry regiments, yet women have been allowed to serve in other regiments for some time now.
