Women of the Warsaw Pact

[boogiedowndonovan]

Hey all,

anyone have any figures for the number of women serving in the Warsaw Pact armies circa 1996?

Also in Kings Ransom, the characters have the opportunity to encounter an Soviet all female communications unit. anyone know if real world Soviet communications units were all female? Also in Black Madonna, characters can encounter the Czech 1AAB which has a female officer, but I assume that females in WP line units is a T2k thing.

I assume that women in the Warsaw Pact weren't as integrated into the military as they were in NATO, but I also assume that once the crap hit the fan and manpower losses were felt, more Warsaw Pact women would find themselves on the front lines similar to WWII where Russian women served as pilots, snipers, etc.
