Earlier this spring, SOMB got connected with the Veterans History Project (VHP) at the Library of Congress (LOC) and had the opportunity to meet and speak with the VHP director, Monica Mohindra, and tour the VHP space and the LOC. And that's when we learned that the VHP needs more stories from women veterans. Of course, we agree - there should be more stories out there from women who have served, including women from USNA. 

Please join us to hear Monica speak with Jeannette about the VHP, what it does, and some of the stories that have stuck with her over the years. And please consider contributing your story to the VHP -- Jeannette and Chris (also '98) plan to do so in August.

If you're interested in learning more, please take a look at these sites - you can find some of the stories Monica shared (Jamie Fox, George Pearcy, Robert Augur, and many more)

Monica, thank you so much for joining us for the discussion and for all that you do! And women (and all alums) from USNA -- please go share your story! Everyone has a story to share, and our stories are important.
