Вооруженные красотки в армиях мира
В современном мире военная служба – удел не только мужчин, но и женщин. И хотя сильная половина человечества преобладает в этом деле, дамы, стремящееся к равноправию, заняли свое место в этом нелегком деле.
В большинстве государств женщины могут служить в армии добровольно. Так, их можно увидеть в армиях США, Канады, Великобритании, Германии, Франции, Швеции, Швейцарии, Нидерландов, Бельгии, Дании, Норвегии, Португалии, Испании, Греции, Турции, Пакистана, Шри-Ланки и других. Отдельно стоит выделить израильскую армию, где с 1959 года законодательно закреплена обязательная воинская повинность лиц обоего пола. В октябре 2014 года парламент Норвегии принял закон о введении обязательной воинской повинности для женщин; призывницы начнут службу летом 2016 года. Таким образом Норвегия стала первым европейским государством и первым членом НАТО, где будет введен обязательный призыв для дам.
Давайте же посмотрим, как выглядят красотки, променявшие платья на камуфляж, а сумочку — на автоматы.
