Women's Military History Week

March has been designated as Women's History Month. The contributions made by all women to this nation since its founding have been tremendous. The contributions made by women who have served in the military are truly inspirational. Governor Schwarzenegger has proclaimed the third full week in March as Women's Military History Week, recognizing the special contributions made by women in the military to this nation and, ultimately, to this state.

If there are any special recognition events with respect to women who are currently in the military or who have served in the military, please e-mail me at Barbara.Ward@cdva.ca.gov, and they will be posted on our web site. In addition, continue to check our web site for more women veterans events and pictures. - Barbara Ward, Deputy Secretary for Women Veterans Affairs.
