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.

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.

Home to her final resting place, this young woman who had, in the short span of 24 years, accomplished so much, not only for herself but for Anna Mac Clarke was born June 20, 1919 in Lawrenceburg, Kentucky. While attending Kentucky State University Anna Mac was involved in sports, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, and the school's newspaper, The Kentucky Thorobred. Educated African American women in the early 1940s had few options, particularly in small towns where the only jobs available to them were low-paying. In 1942, Anna Mac Clarke joined the All-Volunteer Women's Army Auxiliary Corps and left for Basic Training at Fort Des Moines, Iowa.

American Women In The Military by Major Barbara A. Goodno United States Army Officer Veterans Day, 1993 On this day of honor and tradition, we reflect on the deeds of our nation's veterans. We remark about their bravery, selflessness and sacrifice. And it is right that we do this. The strength of our nation rests with those who defend it who keep and protect it for the generations to come. There is one group of veterans, now numbering nearly two million, who until recently have gone unnoticed. Our failure to recognize them properly is a grave oversight, for their quiet, selfless service has been crucial to our nation. When the nation called, they were there. And when no longer needed, they returned quietly to traditional roles. Today, lest we forget, we must first remember remember what they did, recognize their deeds. These very special veterans we honor today are all the women who ever served in defense of our nation. From the American Revolution to the present, the women in our military have a proud heritage one that predates our democracy. Let's take a walk through history in this case, "herstory." Molly Pitcher, whose real name was Mary Hayes McCauly, earned her nickname by carrying water and grog to her husband and other American artillerymen of the Revolution. She earned her fame, however, at New Jersey's Battle of Monmouth on June 28, 1778. When her husband collapsed in battle, she immediately took his place, firing the cannon until the battle was over. And there were others during the American Revolution:

34. Women In Military Service For America Memorial The women in military Service for American Memorial overviews the service of black women from the Revolutionary War to the present. http://womensmemorial.org/Education/BBH1998.html

Brief History of Black Women in the Military Written by: Kathryn Sheldon, former Curator Women In Military Service For America Memorial Foundation, Inc. American women have participated in defense of this nation in both war and peacetime. Their contributions, however, have gone largely unrecognized and unrewarded. While women in the United States Armed Forces share a history of discrimination based on gender, black women have faced both race and gender discrimination. Initially barred from official military status, black women persistently pursued their right to serve. ARTICLES Early Patriots Spanish-American War World War I World War II ... Honoring Black Women's Service Early Patriots No documented records have been discovered of black women's military service in the American Revolution. They may well have served alongside black men. During the Civil War, black women's services included nursing or domestic chores in medical settings, laundering and cooking for the soldiers. Indeed, as the Union Army marched through the South and large numbers of freed black men enlisted, their female family members often obtained employment with the unit. The Union Army paid black women to raise cotton on plantations for the northern government to sell. Five black nurses served under the direction of Catholic nuns aboard the Navy hospital ship Red Rover Susie King Taylor, Civil War nurse, cook, and laundress, was raised a slave on an island off the coast of Georgia. In April of 1861, Major General Hunter assaulted Fort Pulaski and freed all the slaves in the area, including Mrs. King. When Union officers raised the First South Carolina Volunteers (an all-black unit), Mrs. King signed on as laundress and nurse. Able to read and write, she also set up a school for black children and soldiers.

Speak Cherokee Story of Manataka NATIVE AMERICAN WOMEN VETERANS Women In Military Service For America Memorial Ceremonial Entrance Arlington National Cemetery Very little is known about the contributions of Native American women to the United States military. The Women In Military Service For America Memorial Foundation is attempting to fill this gap by encouraging Native American women veterans to register with the Memorial so that their stories may be recorded and preserved. We are also conducting research on the contributions of Native American women of earlier eras. Historians have only recently rediscovered and verified the actions of an Oneida woman, Tyonajanegen , at the battle of Oriskany during the American Revolution (1775-1783). Tyonajanegen was married to an American Army officer of Dutch descent. She fought at her husband's side on horseback during the battle, loading her husband's gun for him after he was shot in the wrist. The story of Sacajawea , the Shoshone woman who accompanied the Lewis and Clark expedition of the early 19th century, is somewhat better known. Much of what is common knowledge is myth, however. Sacajawea has been remembered as a guide. In reality, she served as an interpreter for members of the expedition, who were unfamiliar with the Indian language. "Bird Woman's" service is described in the journals kept by Army Captains Meriwether Lewis and William Clark during the expedition.

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.
