Women in the Armed Forces: A Century of Service publication captures the history of 100 years of women in the military, both formally and informally, dating back to the American Revolution.
Through recounts of people and events, Women in the Armed Forces includes articles about each of the U.S. military branches and highlights how women strived to serve and their willingness to do so. From their days of primarily working in administrative support and nursing duties, women have expanded their roles to commanding troops on the ground, in the air, and on the seas and from the highest offices to serving in military service occupations that were once off limits to females.
For 100 years, women have met the call of duty, exceeded expectations, and will continue to serve their country for the next hundred years.
