Women on the Frontline

As part of the BBC's 100 Women Day we are joined by women who have served on the frontline in combat zones to discuss their lives and what it's like succeeding as a woman in what is traditionally seen as a man's world. We are joined by women from USA, UK, Israel, Kenya, Pakistan and Australia - including a former bomb disposal expert, the first woman to kill a member of the Taliban and a woman who was the highest ranking female officer in the British armed forces.
