The Paper takes great pride in our many associations with the military. We served in the US Army, we worked as a civilian war correspondent with Army, Marines, Navy, and Air Force while on duty in S. Vietnam. We saw what war can do . . . the pain and suffering it causes. We have seen the bravery and heroism of our fighting men and women. We are proud to be an American!
Remember those who have served our nation so that you and I may enjoy our freedom.

AMERICA’S FORGOTTEN WOMEN WARRIORS & MEMORIAL DAY 2022. Unlike the avalanche of news surrounding this year’s Memorial Day observance, this report plans to take a complete departure away from the mainstream news coverage by focusing on a long-lost historical saga of America’s forgotten women warriors. FIRST WORLD WAR: THEY WERE KILLED WHILE SAVING OUR TROOPS. Hundreds of U. S. military
nurses died in WWI while in service to their country. By the end of the war, nearly 300 U. S. Red Cross nurses had lost their lives and never returned to their families, except in flag-draped coffins. Many died and were bestowed special awards of recognition – sadly, many of these awards were given posthumously (after they had died).
SECOND WORLD WAR. Unknown to many, Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP), had 38 brave female warriors who served as U. S. Army Air Force pilots, die during the Second World War. Many of their aircraft were, shockingly, sabotaged by their
own envious U. S. male pilot counterparts (purposely, causing their death).
Eventually, the Women Airforce Service Pilots program trained 1,100 civilian women with noncombat military flight duties. They were the first women to fly U. S. military aircraft!
U.S. PENTAGON SAYS WOMEN CAN NOW SERVE IN FRONT-LINE GROUND COMBAT POSITIONS. The formal process to open combat jobs to women began in January of 2013. U. S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter announced that: “Women in the U. S. military – including the Army and Marines – can now serve in combat posts.” U. S. Defense Secretary, Carter,
acknowledged in recent years that U. S. women have already fought – and died – in combat posts in Iraq. We’ve come a long way in being led by Women Warriors. In fact, in the early years, women were placed in high places of command.
ANCIENT CHINA: FU HAO (Died circa 1200 B.C.). She lived over 32 centuries ago and her name was Lady Fu Hao, and she was one of the 60 wives of Emperor Wu Ding, of ancient China’s Shang Dynasty. She broke with tradition by serving as both a high priestess and as a battlefield
