Military Women: WWII to Present
PROJECT

Uniquely a woman’s perspective but universally the American experience.
Sharing our nation’s woman Veteran’s experiences spanning seven decades of VOLUNTEER Service in defense of our nation and freedoms through a civilian lens.
Initially the project was created with dual goals:
- Learn about my mother’s military service
- Raise awareness of who our women Veterans are, where they reside; and why they chose to serve in defense of our nation, our Democracy and our freedoms.
“Women Veterans were interviewed in the following states: Arizona, California, Georgia, Maine, Maryland, Oregon, Texas, Virginia, Washington, DC, and Wisconsin.
Women from other states were interviewed at conferences and public events.
”My mother and father served in the U. S. Navy. Not surprisingly, I am personally connected to the military and the U. S. Navy despite never having served. I invite those of you who did not serve to connect to our women Veterans through this work.”

- The Department of Defense
- U. S. Army, U. S. Navy, U. S. Marine Corps, U. S. Coast Guard, U. S. Air Force
