How can I say "female soldier" in Japanese


I have trouble translating "female soldier" in Japanese: Is it 女戦士 or 女性戦士?
Also is the particle の lacking between the two words?




This is what my boyfriend has to say (who is fluent in Japanese): 女性戦士 is more
like female warrior, and female soldier would be 女性兵士. But depending on what
you need it for, note that neither of them really sound cool.
