In celebration of Women’s History Month, this episode features a conversation with three remarkable veterans and leaders who are at the forefront of advocacy for women servicemembers and veterans.
(*This program was recorded live on Zoom during a VBC Monday night veteran’s storytelling program.)
Retired USAF Colonel Lorry Fenner, Director of Government Relations for the Service Women’s Action Network will talk about her 26-year career in the Air Force, the history of women in military and highlight key legislation supporting women service members and veterans before Congress.
Retired USA Colonel Dr. Ellen Haring and retired USN pilot Joy Bronson, veterans turned filmmakers, will present a sneak peek of their upcoming documentary The Fight to Fight which tells the story of trailblazing young women integrating the Army’s elite ground combat units and the women veterans who are their guardian angels. Their struggles and triumphs offer a unique lens to view women, work, and gender equity in America.
