AP - Pentagon rules are catching up a bit with reality after a decade when women in the U.S. military have served, fought and died on the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan.

A study released this week by the Center for Global Development found widespread Pakistani discontent with U.S. aid.

The U.S. has spent more than $20 billion on the country over the past decade, but many Pakistanis fault the pace of the spending while others note that most of the aid goes to the country's military.
