Women in the military in Europe

Okay kiddo, so in Europe, women can be in the military just like men can! It used to be that only men could be in the military a long time ago, but things have changed.

Women are allowed to do lots of different jobs in the military. They can be soldiers, mechanics, medics, pilots, and even commanders! They have to go through the same training and do the same exercises as men, but they also get some special training just for them.

Some people used to think that women weren't strong enough or brave enough to be in the military, but that's not true at all! Women are just as strong and brave as men. They can do anything they set their minds to.

So if a woman wants to join the military in Europe, she can! And she will be treated just like any other soldier, no matter if she's a girl or a boy.
