Personally I'm against women in combat for a variety of reasons. I'm not going into it because it can get political. I will put one point out though. I've read that Islamic fighters do not surrender when it is a women as oppose to a man because they consider it shameful to surrender to a women.

From what I've read the Israelis stopped using women in combat units because of the negative effect it had on male soldiers morale when women were wounded/killed.
