In this photo taken Sunday, March 30, 2014, female Somali soldier Naeemo Abdi guards a police station in Mogadishu, Somalia. It’s unusual to see a female in the military in traditionally conservative Somali society where women's duties are generally at home and limited to family chores, but determined women are breaking down those barriers with about 1,500 females now in the military of 20,000, according to estimates.
