(Jerusalem Post) Cara Dorris - Two women completed the IDF's infantry officer course on Wednesday. Noam Maoz, 21, described the eight-month course: "You never stop working out. You have all kinds of training - navigations of 30 km. all by yourself, no map, no nothing. Then there is a week that literally doesn't stop. We don't sleep for three days." "You carry your weight all week long - 25 kilos with the vest and weapon - and finish at sunrise by climbing the highest mountain in Israel. It even snowed that week."
