Walking through the events that led to women being legally allowed to serve in the Army. We chart their journey, following their progress from ‘simply being tolerated’ to ‘being a nuisance and a threat to men’s jobs’ - through the change in legislation which finally recognised women’s valuable contribution to modern warfare.
