The armed forces of any country are a fighting force and even die hard activists of women’s liberation will agree that the going is tough for a soldier fighting in the inhospitable terrain of Afghanistan or the valley of Kashmir. The opponents in these cases are die hard fanatics who profess a religion that gives very few rights to a woman. The question that needs to be answered is, whether women can be active participants as soldiers and warriors in such scenarios.

Historical records of wars are available for 4000 years. That is a pretty long time. However even a cursory reading of the campaigns of Hannibal and Alexander to those of Chengiz khan and Napoleon will show that no women soldiers were used or took part in any operation. There could be exceptions here and there like Joan of Arc or a Rani of Jhansi, but the underlying thread is that women have by and large never been soldiers.

However there are records to show that women did accompany soldiers and armies in a different capacity as ‘camp followers’ or ‘comfort women’. Their job was to comfort the soldier after the heat of battle. Women activists who propagate gender equality, must understand that something not in vogue or practiced for thousands of years cannot be negated at one stroke of a pen.

A deeper study will show that women as soldiers or officers cannot stand up to the rigors of the job due to their God given qualities. Firstly women are not as strong as men and secondly they have inherent biological cycles that cannot be obviated and certainly can be restrictive in the heat of combat. That is the reason even an enlightened nation like the USA does not use women for combat duties.

A few times the women were used as soldiers like during the first Iraq war the results were disastrous as an Iraqi attack took some women recruits as prisoners with disastrous results of sexual assault. Women’s equality with man certainly needs to be supported but women in the armed forces is not the best of things. Perhaps their role as non combatants can have some meaning as they will add a feminine and healing touch in a world that is certainly a mans world.

A US military loan is one that is only given out exclusively to either current or former forces personnel in not just the US military but also in the National Guard. Such loans offer interest rates which are below those offered to civilians and are well below both credit card and other loan rates. These loans are not secured on any sort of collateral and the credit checks carried out are minimal (if they are done at all). These types of loans are a great way for military to pay off bills or help meet any emergency situations that may arise.

So where exactly is it you can get a military loan from? You can actually pretty much get them anywhere. But probably the best place to look is online. But if you want you could also meet up with a financial advisor for the USAF, USMC or Army base and they will be able to assist you. These advisors are able to get in touch with the right institution in order to help secure a US military loan for forces personnel.

Also these types of loans can also not just help the armed forces personnel but their families as well. As once you have secured the loan you can get the money sent to whomever they want it to be sent to. So say for example a guy based in Germany gets a loan which he then arranges for the money to be sent back to his wife in say Ohio and she can then get the house fixed after it got flooded. Such loans are not only quick to complete but they are also quick at ensuring the money gets to the recipient as soon as possible. Also should you be on active service and are unable to apply for a loan yourself then power of attorney people can actually apply for the loan on your behalf.

So as you can see the US military loan is a great way for members of the US armed forces to sort out any financial situation or emergency as quickly as possible.
