WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, has been outspoken about his opinion that women should not serve in combat roles.

Here’s a look at how many women are in such military roles, as of the 2024 budget year:

• Navy Special Warfare combat crew: 2

• Air Force special operations: 3

• Green Berets: Fewer than 10

• Completed the Army Ranger course: more than 150

• Total serving in Army Special Operations Command as special forces, civil affairs, psychological operations and helicopter pilots, including in the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment: 260 to 270

Thousands of women have served or currently are in jobs that until 2015 were male-only.

MARINES:

• Officers in job categories previously restricted to men, including infantry, artillery and combat engineers: Nearly 192

• Enlisted Marine in those jobs: 410

That number has steadily increased since 2018.

ARMY:

• Serving in Army infantry, armor and artillery jobs: Nearly 4,800

• Field artillery roles: More than 2,020

• Infantry: More than 902

• Armor: 864

The number of women in those jobs also has increased over the years.
