Around 250,000 female veterans and active-duty women use health care from the Veterans Administration. As Kelly Wallace reports, the number is rising and the VA is concerned that they can deliver.

@jenaelawrikay The shower together thing was a joke.Women DO have their place in the millitary but 216 men sharing four showers while five women have four showers of their own is silly.I do not want a woman in combat on foreign land.I have no problem with a female fighter pilot defending our skies here in America.I still think the women should not be treated soooo much better than a man.I have a son and a daughter by the way.Also too many women get pregnant in combat.

I don't fully agree with you. I don't plan to change your mind, but I will say that although a man can lift more weight than a woman, and I saw my fair share of females that didn't carry their weight, due to the attitudes of other troops, women are held at an impossible standard before they even get out the gate. It's not the fastest or strongest that win- it's those with character in adversity.

My son and brother are in Iraq and said the women are treated much better than the guys.My female cousin in Iraq hangs out in a FOB. I would rather my son and brother be in combat than my girl cousin.I hate to see any american hurt but when it is a woman it is worse.The enemy does not care women are not as rugged as the men.EVERYONE should have to meet the SAME physical requirements if they are in combat.Male and female.Also need to shower together like in Starship Troopers haha.No distinction.

@ererye Are you fucking joking? You are calling female soldiers a joke? As someone who is about to enlist, I take that to offense. You are saying that because you are probably not man enough to help serve your country so females are doing it for you! Pussy.

Not tryign to be sexist here. Women and men are different. Men are designed to be in harms way. Women are not. It only stands to reason that women who are wounded need to different treatment because men and women are different. The Isreali's learned the hard way.
