I believe they mean race minorities...
Quick question: with minorities...would that include women as well? Or do they mean more towards race minorities (black, hispanic, asian etc.)

Diversity/minority - the aim is for more economic diversity and racial diversity.
women ARE being actively recruited as I stated in the post above.
Allow me to clarify - women are being recruited and encouraged to apply. This does not mean concessions will be made to applicants who are women......
...My comment was sort of directed to trackandfield who thought is was "sweet" that she was female....
...My remark ("sweet") was simply an exclamation at the fact that CGA does consider women to be a minority,...
....and she says the same thing, in that women work just as hard to get somewhere in the military as men and that they do not acheive their positions just because they're women.
