National Edition News cover for May 26, 2015 - Israel keeps women from war’s front lines: An Israeli woman soldier prepares for a military training session near Jerusalem, Feb. 20, 2007. The past ten years have seen an important shift in the way the Israeli army views its female conscripts, allowing them out of the clerical or support jobs to which they were traditionally confined and making room for them on the battlefield. But the revolution has its critics. Many in the army say inserting women into combat units causes damage that Israel's military can little afford. (AP Photo/Oded Balilty)
