Special Air Service top brass want female troops to join the Army’s elite regiment.

They believe women will add a new dimension to the fighting force with the motto “Who Dares Wins”.

One in ten of the armed forces are women but there are none in the SAS or its sister regiment the Special Boat Service. In an unofficial recruitment drive, the regiment has visited the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, Berks, and the Infantry Battle School in Wales.

But sources warn any female hopefuls will face the same gruelling six-month selection as male troops. Around 100 volunteer each year but only ten pass. So far, only two women are believed to have tried.

And why not. Surely even in the SAS dishes need washing!?
