I'm one of those female veterans, and I'm highly offended at the slight. And to add insult to injury, it was MY service branch that was mentioned in the article. Air Force, how low you fly these days, it seems. Shame on you; shame on the Pentagon. There is no shame or hope of shame for Kegsbreath, unfortunately.

To all my sister veterans, I salute you. WE know what we had to put up with and how we had to fight for recognition and dignity during those early years of opening the services to women. Even if our country won't recognize us anymore, we still stand in solidarity with each other and the Constitution!
