This revised edition of Maj. Gen Jeanne Holm's classic work on the history and role of women in the U.S. armed forces brings the reader up-to-date by covering the role of American military women in all post-Vietnam military operations -- including the recent Persian Gulf War. Just as important is her discussion of the changing role of women in the military during the 1980s and 1990s. Book jacket.

The era of the woman is here! Lock and load! The female of the species is deadlier than the male, the saying goes. Those words could not be true than with the elite, the secret black ops elite of America's armed forces. A team, a unit, a squad of special forces operators made up of all women only. Whose mission it is to fight the enemies of freedom and democracy worldwide and on U.S homeland soil as well, with extreme prejudice with a mandate of infinite justice for all. Thus, these sisters in arms are skilled in all forms of battlefield combat and modern tactical warfare. Fighting on land, air, and water. Fighting the global forces of evil, terror, and extremism wherever they may be. As these soldiers can go to places that regular special forces of Seal Teams and Delta Force cannot. They are a secret army; they are the best of best of the best, they are Girl Force! And this is their story. A secret story...

A good book has the power to touch readers and provide insightful commentary into the human condition and current events. This title examines the greatest literary hits to take America by storm from the 1950s to present day.
