Army Girls Of Israeli Defense Forces

However, approximately one third of female conscripts (more than double the figure for men) are exempted, mainly for religious and nuptial reasons.
Following their active service, women, like men, have, in theory, to serve up to one month annually in reserve duty. However, in practice only some women get called for active reserve, and only for a few years following their active service, with many exit points (e.g., pregnancy).
