“Now that the Pentagon is lifting its ban on women in combat, does this mean that women could potentially be drafted, too?  ‘The answer to that question is clearly yes,’ says Anne Coughlin, a law professor at the University of Virginia School of Law in Charlottesville.
Once the combat exclusion policy is lifted, ‘My belief is that if we open up combat arms to women, even on a voluntary basis, if there is a draft, we should be able to force women into those positions,’ says retired Col. Peter Mansoor, a professor of military history at the Ohio State University in Columbus and a former US Army brigade commander who served two tours in Iraq.”
