I really have not seen a tribute like this before. How about you?
I collection off all our sisters in arms who raised their right hands and paid the ultimate sacrifice for our great country.
I truly have not seen a collection of just our female KIA from our longest running wars. Wives, Mothers, Daughters, Sisters.
I feel maybe the sacrifice of our women can be often overlooked or sidelined when discussing the sacrifice of war.
I know current events are focused on women in combat, but this isn't about that, nor am I attempting to begin a discussion on the topic.
Just take a look if you wish, or don't.

Women are every bit the warrior we men are or can be. RIP Ladies, Leaders....WARRIORS.

Very true, or women who have lost their lives in combat do not get the recognition of their sacrifices often. If you ever get the chance visit the Army Women's Museum at Fort Lee. It is one of a kind and is a great place to see the history of our great forces and women's contributions to the fight. Great post!!

Never thought about that and I remember female soldiers from all 5 of my deployments that lost their lives

Roger Sgt, I'm guilty of it too. some of the most amazing soldiers I've served with are our female SMs. Yet when I hear or think KIA, it isn't our women in arms that come to mind. It's nice to see someone shining a light on their sacrifice too.
