Women are underrepresented in Germany’s armed forces. A new package of legal reforms hope to change that, as the country looks to sharpen its military edge.

A little off topic but TIL that GDR's armed forces allowed 'full participation' right from the beginning in 1956. Though women weren't drafted they could join voluntarily and serve in medical and rear services.
