Thanks for telling these women's stories. As a parent of a young woman who can hardly wait to turn 18, join the Air Force, and deploy to Iraq, I appreciate your efforts.
It's true - woman are patriotic, too, and many of us desire to serve our country.
Keep telling these stories in your elegant prose---you are the master at profiling people!
