I guess you could say this is the ultimate insult to a woman who is a true hero.
Within a few days of her heroic acts, however, the Army pulled Brown out of the remote camp in Paktika province where she was serving with a cavalry unit -- because, her platoon commander said, Army restrictions on women in combat barred her from such missions.
Where is the feminist outrage that a woman who risked her lives for her fellow soldiers was pulled out of a place where she has the opportunity to save those soldiers lives. At least some women are questioning whether women should be kept out of combat at all. In any case I think Spc. Monica Brown should have a lot more right to being a celebrity then some freak like Tila Tequila. Let's hope the Monica Brown story will be made into a major motion picture.
