Where did she learn how to use all manner of guns and melee weaponry?. I'm positive they don't teach that in law school lol.

I think it was only the male SS who was in the army and fought in Alaska not the female SS.
That definitely seems possible considering the US was at war with China and the goverment may have wanted all citizens prepared just incase of a full on invasion.
Yeah this is something that bothered me aswell. Maby 50-60 years from now Spec-Ops training will be required to pass the BAR? Certainly plays that way.
Seriously though, since like Remmus said, it's mentioned by your husband that you dust of your law degree i assume you where conscripted during the war and met your hubby while serving. That's how i make sense of it anyway.
Shame really, i wanted to play a person with no combat experience coping with the wasteland but without skills that's hard to do.
I didn't know the women where drafted to. I thought it was only the men because I don't remember seeing any female soldiers in the anchorage DLC in FO3.
Oh wow. I guess I need to listen to that tape again lol.
She might have served under the GI Bill or something equivalent while learning the Law Degree. Also maybe the school also had a course for other law enforcement practices. Maybe she served as a JAG officer and got some basic training that way.
I'm an idiot... SS?
And for my two cents, following other cliched storylines, I am willing to bet it is highly possible both personas served. Either by draft or choice. The political and martial climate at the time would certainly suggest a higher percentage of people joining up in the military. Most people (personal experience) prefer to marry or join with someone who has a military background, even if just a military brat or primary family member of someone who served. Civilian sector occupations attached to the military qualify for this.

Yup. I'm an idiot. Didn't even think of it.
In USA everyone and their mom and grandma has a gun and knows how to use it is the reason is what I think.
All the east coast architects were trapped at a conference about the use of adobe in California when the bombs hit.
