But did the name Philis Wheatley, Jenny Hodges, or Sybil Ludington evoke the same recognition and admiration for the unprecedented sacrifice of the same 'career'? The answer may be "no", but unfortunately this is expected

Many military measures such as Army field guns, maritime intelligence agencies, Air Force and Navy fighter pilots, Navy captains, etc. will be released to women shortly.
