Hi SGT Shannon,
I wish you all the best! It is not common for me to meet female vets, but as I do I would like to know the best way for me to put them in touch with you.

Hey Alvin! Thanks for your well wishes! Yes there is about 2 million women veterans in USA, we make up about 1% of the nation’s population so indeed we are rare.
