As much as thirty percent of the women on active duty and almost thirty-five percent of those serving in the Reserve and Guard are raising their children while serving in their chosen branches. That was not always the case. Fifty years ago, women had the choice to serve in uniform but lost that choice once they became a mom. And today, Congress is still dealing with that decision to force women to separate simply because they had a child.
Today, almost fifty years later, women continue to prove that motherhood is compatible with service in the Armed Forces. The women in this book have served or are serving their country and raising their children in the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines Corps, or Coast Guard.
Military families consist of moms serving on Active Duty, in the Reserves/Guards, and spouse raising their children. Whether in uniform or as a spouse, these moms provide their insights to challenges that are unique to the Armed Forces.
Check out what this group of "moms in the military" have to say about choosing the obligation of service while tackling the responsibilities of motherhood and see how they are proving that motherhood is not a barrier to military service.
These Moms in the military openly discuss:
The decision to remain in the military after pregnancy
Their family's reaction to their decision
The impact of military service on their children
The impact of separation due to temporary duty/deployment
Tackling single motherhood while serving
And more
