Soldier Girls follows the experiences of three women in the Indiana National Guard -- one a young college student, one a single mother, and one a grandmother -- who chose to enlist for different reasons, never expecting they would go to war. Though quite far apart in age and in their political views, the three women become close friends, and through their daily interaction we see how military service changes their relationships with their families, their lovers, and their children.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Library For The Blind and Print Disabled Large Type LT 956.70443 TH Checked In Add Copy to MyList
