In today's world of technologically enhanced warfare, the "stripling warriors" of today include a number of women and mothers!

God Bless America for being a land of liberty and opportunity for women!

Rachel: I appreciate your comment, since I served 20 years in the Air Force alongside many outstanding women. However, your comment really has nothing to do with the article, which is concerned with our lack of appreciation for what the mothers of Helaman's battalion actually did, that inspired the extraordinary kind of faith those young men displayed.
