I am so glad that you have found an outlet to reach out to others who are where you have been and need to know that others have overcome these challenges. I am certain you are an inspiration to many and will help women, and men, move beyond their fears and live and work in a more accepting military environment. Shine on and lead the way! Kristen,

There were no complaints, no issues and they were everything you would expect; Professionals! Be proud and nice blog, Kristen. Yes, the contribution of our female warriors continues to be devalued.
