EJTO s.‘- THETIMESTUESDWAraiLmW 12 When killing is a woman’s work p.CHAIIVEL/SYiSMA Whether as regular soldiers or fanatical guerrillas, female fighters have always had a role on the battlefield, reports Kate Muir Tonight, somewhere in the sriin wastes of Bosnia, two exhausted women will lay their loaded guns by their beds, throw off their camouflage fatigues, and fall into a fitful sleep. Tomorrow, one will shoulder her SASO automatic rifle, the other her Kalashnikov. The British woman with the SA80 will go about her daily task of driving a truck in a UN food convoy. The Croatian with the Kalashnikov will go about her daily task, of killing Serbs. Both are volunteer soldiers in the same land, but there the similarities end. The life and rationale of the freedom fighter is far from that of the regular soldier. The Croatian woman is there out of desperation: her life, her home and her family arc threatened and all around her is cltaos. Either she watches from tiie sidelines or plunges in. The British soldier is there after careful consideration, having weighed the different largely practi¬ cal reasons for joining a peacetime force: career, education, travel, camaraderie, patriotism, a smart uniform, or even the disciplined life, in Bosnia, she — and her male colleagues — are still pursuing their careers while distributing humani¬ tarian aid. But as far as the history of women in front-line combat goes, the female soldiers in the Croatian Serbian armies are continuing years of tradition. The British female career soldier is the aberra¬ tion. Since the Greeks, and proba¬ bly before, women have always fought as irregulars.
