In Memory of All Who Gave Their Lives for Freedom
Although Memorial Day is to remember those who died fighting for freedom, and few women have died in conflicts, I’d like to share The Women’s Military Memorial, located at the entrance to Arlington National Cemetery.
One of the Memorial’s goals is to preserve information about the military service of women. Several years ago, I registered my mother, who was very proud of her service in the WAVES during World War II.
The home page has a tab in the header photo to set up a free account and register the names of any women in your family, along with details of their service, in the Memorial. They also accept donations.
What a great way to honor the military women in our families!
