History of Women in the Military
 
 
.

March is Women in the Military History Month at the Alabama Veterans Museum and Archives.

To help celebrate the Museum brought in guest speakers Jan Shaughnessy of Sail Away Travel, SKCS Donna Curtis (USN Ret) and Ali Turner; Local author of “A Ballad for Baghdad”.

Each gave a depiction of life in the military and how it had enriched their lives and allowed them to fulfill wishes they didn't know they could reach.

The love of travel, their country, honoring their parents to the love of helping their fellow man/woman was among the most repeated feeling they each conveyed during their oration.
