Yes, I served long ago, 10 years ago actually. I was supposed to serve six years as part of an academic program, but there was a time when after three years one could choose not to continue (apparently hi-tech industry was at a low and tech units in the army were more attractive or some such). I made my choice and haven't regretted it since.
Ahh, that was some time ago. It's before they started giving academic officers free funding/scholarship for their degree (today in case you don't know, atudaim get the bachelor for free, and some even get the masters for free!).
Of course today those academic officers have very hard time getting out of the army before the 6 year period ends. I certainly know some who've been trying for years


Anyway, I'm not saying that all girls in the army are always harmless (just mostly harmless ). But that most girls are. Most of the females in world armies serve non-combat roles. There are few women in modern western nations that are capable of being the equal of males in soldiery (they lack physical and psychological characteristics needed for excelling in it).
