Description
The face of the US military is changing. Today, women make
up more than 14 percent of the nation’s armed forces, and
the Department of Defense recently announced its intent to
open up over 14,000 combat-related positions to women.
What new opportunities do women have in today’s military?
How do women succeed in a still predominately male
environment? And how have their lives, families, health, and
the transition to being veterans been impacted?
Speakers: Angela Messer, Mary A. Legere, Nancy Brown, Paula Broadwell
