As more women enter the military — and increasingly take positions closer to combat — female veterans say perceptions of women in the armed forces are slowly shifting in a culture that for centuries has been geared toward men.</p>

<p>There are about 1.7 million female veterans living today. They have served in both peacetime and every war since World War II, but for most, military life did not include picking up a weapon.</p>

<p>Dorothy Wolfe, of St. Louisville, Ohio, was a Marine in the late 1950s and later went on to serve in the Ohio Air National Guard. She remembers her Marine boot camp as a time “when we watched a lot of films on how to wear make-up.”
