The EFCP (Evaluation of Female Combat Personnel) Program
Hi everyone,
I need a little help writing an article... and i'm having a severe case of writers block/brain fart. Thus I'm asking for all of your help in writing this article for my Twilight 2000 campaign.
The EFCP (Evaluation of Female Combat Personnel) Program:
The Evaluation of Female Combat Personnel Program was the pet project of SEN Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) and a coalition of Congresswomen in the House of Representatives that would allow for women to be allowed in the combat arms of the Armed Forces that lasted from 2001-2004. While there were some cases of problems with the Program, it for the most part showed that women could operate in combat positions.
The legislation that was passed that allowed women in combat positions also opened the Draft to women, the debate on this was heated and fell along party lines. But in the end, the entire legislation package was passed with the slogan "Equal Rights, Equal Risks" that was used by both supporters and detractors.
Despite allowing women in combat roles, there were several career fields (such as Infantry) that were not opened to women until the height of the Twilight War forced a change with the growing need for manpower.

Your wife can't remember your last name, your kids don't want to talk to you... You get to eat a lot of meals by yourself. Trust me kid, nobody wants to be that guy. I do this because there is nobody else to do it right now. Believe me if there was somebody else to do it, I would let them do it. There's not, so I'm doing it.
