1. American Women In Uniform, Veterans Too! Site dedicated to women in military history. http://userpages.aug.com/captbarb

Welcome to the home of the skeptical, irascible, doubting, iconoclastic Captain Critical, aka Captain Barb, whose pontificating will try to amuse, bemuse, irritate and generally annoy anyone bold enough to stay long enough to read the ramblings of a self appointed distaff critic who will continue to remind you that women are veterans too! Did you know that there are almost two million women veterans? From the American Revolution to Panama, Bosnia, Kosovo, Afghanistan and Iraq , women have served in some way in every conflict. Not that they were legal in the early days. History tells us that thirty three thousand women served in World War One and almost 500,000 took part in World War Two. During the Korean era 120,000 women were in uniform and seven thousand were deployed in theater during Viet Nam. During Desert Storm seven per cent of the total U.S. forces deployed were women - over forty thousand of them. On these pages you will find the history and accomplishments of those women who have served this country - voluntarily - since it's beginning.

Home Nursing Gifts Search FAQ Honoring Women in the Military Honoring Female Military Nurses by Jo Ann Klein, MS, RN-C On October 18, 1997, the Women in Military Service for America Memorial was dedicated at the Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia. Located at the gateway to the cemetery, this marble, stone, and glass memorial tells the story of woman's past and present service in the military. Guests included Vice-President Al Gore who thanked every servicewoman, past and present for "what you have done" adding "This memorial has been forged by the countless acts of bravery and sacrifice of generations of American servicewomen". Senator Bob Dole attended as a "grateful soldier" and recalled the "care, compassion, and strength" of the nurses who cared for him after his serious injury in World War II. Dole, who said that the memorial will remind future generations that military women are also guaranteed freedom, recognized that women are now seeing "the 100% recognition they have long earned" for having served out of dedication to their country. Dole lauded the efforts of Brigadier General Wilma Vaught (USAF, retired) who worked tirelessly to make the memorial a reality.

WOMEN IN THE MILITARY PREFACE Mrs. Pamela Prewitt, an evaluator at the U.S. Army Armor School, Fort Knox, Kentucky, served as a participant in the Topical Research Intern Program at the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute (DEOMI) in June 1995. She conducted the necessary research to prepare this report. The Institute thanks Mrs.Prewitt for her contributions to the research efforts of DEOMI. SCOPE The Topical Research Intern Program provides the opportunity for Servicemembers and DoD civilian employees to work on diversity/equal opportunity projects while on a 30-day tour of duty at the Institute. During their tour, the interns use a variety of primary and secondary source materials to compile a review of data or research pertaining to an issue of importance to equal opportunity (EO) and equal employment opportunity (EEO) specialists, supervisors, and other leaders throughout the Services. The resulting publications (such as this one) are intended as resource and educational materials and do not represent official policy statements or endorsements by the DoD or any of its agencies. The publications are distributed to EO/EEO personnel and selected senior officials to aid them in their duties. July 1995 LOCAL REPRODUCTION IS AUTHORIZED AND ENCOURAGED The opinions expressed in this report are those of the author and should not be construed to represent the official position of DEOMI, the military services, or the Department of Defense

Denver, CO NEWS BLOGHOUSE BUSINESS CAMPAIGN 2004 ... SEARCH SITE SEARCH: WEB SEARCH: EMAIL ARTICLE LINK TO ARTICLE PRINT ARTICLE Article Published: Sunday, November 23, 2003 editorial Protect women in military In an era when 15 percent of the nation's armed forces are female, it's an unpardonable outrage that the military seems incapable of preventing or properly punishing what can only be described as an epidemic of rape in the services. "Betrayal in the Ranks," an exhaustive, nine-month investigation by a team of Denver Post reporters, concluded that rape in the military may be more common than in the civilian world but that the military often takes a more lenient approach than civilian authorities. The investigation also found another unacceptable practice - the fact that military husbands often get a free pass on domestic abuse that would land a civilian in jail. Worse, Post reporters found an absymally low level of support for victims of both domestic violence and rape in such key areas as victims' advocacy and counseling and enforcement of restraining orders. The Post series, which ran last week, has attracted the attention of Congress. Chairman John Warner, R-Va., of the Senate Armed Services Committee said he found the revelations troubling and has asked a subcommittee to investigate. Sen. Wayne Allard, R-Colo., said hearings might be held next year.

12. Women In Military Service To America Memorial, Arlington National Cemetery From its balustraded roof we now can focus our attention on the specific issues of women s military service, and then, as at all successful memorials, on http://www.arlingtoncemetery.com/womens.htm

To Contact This Fine Organization, Click Here One good test of a new work of architecture is the degree to which it improves its surroundings. By this measure, the Women in Military Service for America Memorial is a resounding success. Even though it is a bit too reticent, the memorial enhances an already splendid setting in a number of ways. You approach via Memorial Drive, on that unforgettable visual axis between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery, with the Greek columns of Arlington House on the green western hill. The new memorial being dedicated today is at the base of the hill. From a distance you would hardly know it is there, for the memorial has been subtly built in front of, on top of and behind an existing structure the elegant semicircular stone retaining wall that for more than six decades has marked the ceremonial entrance to the cemetery. At dusk there is now a soft glow atop the wall, from the electric light coming through the memorial's canted glass roof. Up close, you notice the transformation right away. In front of the wall is a handsome stone-paved plaza with a dark circular pool in the center. The wall itself, left untended for decades, once again shines crisply under the autumn sun. Four of its 11 blind niches have been opened up for stairwells leading to the roof. There, you'll find a newly paved walkway and angled glass "tablets," many engraved with sayings about women's experiences in the military. Behind the wall a new building has been dug into the hillside, housing pertinent displays, a hall of honor, a small auditorium, a shop and a computerized service registry.

AMERICAN ARMOURED FOUNDATION TANK MUSEUM Militaria Tank Toys Pillowcases WAC Kline ... Museum Artwork A Salute to Women in Uniform Almost two million women have served in the U.S. Military Some 200,000 women are on active duty today! Women are Veterans, Too! THANK A WOMEN VETERAN TODAY !!!!!!! From the Civil War to today women have volunteered their services to this great nation and at times with little or no recognition. History and those who publish this history seem reluntant to record and publish the names, numbers and accomplishments of American women who served, who died, who were imprisoned, or were wounded in military service to this country. The Women of World War II served under the following female branches of the service: WAAC - Women's Army Auxiliary Corp, which was never officially established and became WAC - Women's Army Corps in July of 1943. WAVES - Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Services, which was officially established in 1948. WASPS - Women Airforce Service Pilots , this branch did not receive offcial recognition until 1979 by the Air Force. Then in 1984 ( forty years later) those that served in this branch of service received the Victory Medal and for those that served more than 1 year in this service branch, they received the American Theatre Medal as well. The WACS - WAVES - WASPS and several other female service branches no longer exist, as they were eliminated in the mid 1970's.

WOMEN IN THE MILITARY Photo sent courtesy of Brian Martin Sad to say, we seem to " lump " vets into a single category.. Unfortunately, tain't so folks. There are Men and Women Veterans. Although much is the same for both genda's, there are some differences.. There are various health issue differences. Those that serve in Combat areas also go through PTSD but perhaps a bit different than the male soldier. VA hospitals, mostly where set-up for handling of male soldiers.. and while there is a start of late, much has to be done to handle treatment and specific exams geared to accomadate the female soldier.. This section is dedicated to them... To try to reach out to the needs of the Female Vet! I will try to post what information I find, that may be useful or beneficial to the female vet.. This also will be a place for you to share and exchange: information, stories, experiences, or thoughts, with other female vets. As I find other sites, relating to Females in the Military, they will be posted here.. Or if YOU find a site you think will interest others let me know, and I will add them also..

WOMEN ARE VETERANS, TOO! Welcome to the Women Veterans Website. I am a disabled woman veteran. If it weren't for my disability, I never would've known that the Veterans Administration and it's hospitals were somewhere to go to for any reason. I, like so many other women, didn't know how to get into the system, what options were available to me as a veteran. I was lost. Thanks to the help of many other veterans, I was able to meet the right people in order to help me to work around my disability. This is not an "Oh woe is me" site. This page is being designed to help other female veterans to become aware of the services that are available to them. The VA Hospitals I am Veronica Reilly, USMC Retired. I belong to the American Legion in the state of NY because I want to make a difference for me and those after me to keep our benefits alive. I am trying to make a difference in the treatment that women vets receive when visiting the hospital for out and in patient appointments. Women's Health Women are encouraged to seek treatment at VA facilities; but not many do. Treatment of women veterans at various facilities throughout the country are not "women" friendly. I can't begin to tell you how many times I've been called Mr. Reilly; but improvements are forthcoming. They are learning that we women know what our benefits are and that we are going to use them. Get involved with your women's coordinator and see if your VA has a Women Veteran's Committee. Give the Coordinator your suggestions for improvements. They can't hurt.
