Embedding problems with local conditions and the admissibility of finite groups

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$, which has infinitely many discrete valuations. We show that every finite embedding problem for $\Gal(k)$ with finitely many prescribed local conditions, whose kernel is a $p$-group, is properly solvable. We then apply this result in studying the admissibility of finite groups over global fields of positive characteristic. We also give another proof for a result of Sonn.
