Celebrate 28 Years of the Military Women's Memorial
  • During a recent Military Women’s Memorial event, author Lena Andrews shared how she first discovered the story of a remarkable military woman—tucked away in a single footnote. One story nearly lost to history.
    For far too long, that’s how women’s service has been treated—as a footnote.

    At the Military Women’s Memorial, we are unwavering in our mission to bring women’s service out of the shadows—to give voice and visibility to women who serve our nation. Thanks to supporters like you, these stories of service are no longer buried. They are illuminated. Celebrated. Not footnotes—but foundational chapters in America’s history.

    Because of you, their stories now live on, proudly preserved—not hidden, at the Memorial. Every name and story of service added to our National Register is one more woman pulled from the margins of history—and given her rightful place at the center of it.

    As we approach the 28th Anniversary of the Military Women’s Memorial on October 18, join us in transforming remembrance into action. Awareness into acknowledgment. Footnotes into headlines. Because of your support, Women who serve are not a footnote. We are the force.

    Together, we’re making sure that women’s service and contributions are never just a footnote. Thank you for your support.
