Book Summary
"Women in the United States Armed Forces: A Guide to the IssueS" covers over a
century of accomplishments of military women, from the Civil War to the current
wars in the Middle East. Readers will learn, for example, that during World War
II, 565 women in the Women's Army Corps stationed in the Pacific theater
received combat decorations, proving that women had the courage, strength, and
stamina to perform in a combat environment. They will also learn that, perhaps
surprisingly, it wasn't until the mid- to late 1970s that women had their first
opportunities to serve at sea and as aviators (crew as well as pilots),
