The Westport Library’s Women in the Military LibGuide celebrates the pivotal roles of women in U.S. armed forces history, from Civil War nurses and WWI "Hello Girls" to modern combat pioneers after the 2015 ban lift. It offers timelines, trailblazer videos like the WASPs, oral histories from the Women's Memorial, and stats on today's 17% female active-duty force. Ideal for Women's History Month or students, this resource highlights resilience from Desert Storm to present-day deployments.
