Over 1.8 million women have served in the U.S. Armed Forces, and over 255,000 women have deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan. Today, on Veterans Day, Service Women’s Action Network celebrates their service to our nation. Each story represents a woman’s unique experience. Please listen and share with others. Keep visiting the site – these are the first of many stories we will be sharing.
