This is a good book on the subject.

One of the more famous female soldiers of WWI was Yashka, since she founded the first women's battalion and wrote an English language memoir later.

There was an earlier memoir by a woman who served as a man in the Napoleonic Wars, Nadezhda Durova, whose experience seems to have served as some kind of role model for this phenomenon.

Are you legit this dense?
I’m training to be an expert in this field, so I can assure you women fought for the Russian army in 1917 before the reds took power, and reinstated women soldier for their more famous role In WW2.
These women paved the way for every women sniper team and tank crew who fought and gave their lives, and you quite plainly deny their existence in the face of evidence.
But because you refuse to watch an informative video here are some sources you can read

And yes “Bud” is condescending, and you intended that.
You could have done a google search to verify the quote, or have looked to seen the sources used in the original video I had sent, but you assumed you knew everything and refused to Accept you may have been mistaken, again condescending.
I may still be learning, but at-least I know when to admit I’m wrong, and enjoy learning somthing new and interesting.
