Product Description
In the last twenty-five years the U.S. military has seen the abolition of women's separate corps, the appointment of women generals, and an unprecedented increase in the ratio of women to men. Also, women are now permitted to serve on combat planes and ships. Despite these developments, most civilians know very little about women in the military.

This collection includes unusual accounts by women on active duty, retired officers, women who have worked for the armed forces in a civilian capacity, and civilian academics. The book offers insights on a variety of pressing issues including minority women, lesbians, combat, the role of gender in weapons design, and the changing mission of the military.

Through personal accounts and commentaries, this book dispels many of the myths about women and the military and explores the reasons for the persistence of misconceptions in the face of increased female participation. This comprehensive effort will be of interest to anyone who wants to know the truth about women in the armed forces and will be a wake-up call to women who feel that the military is irrelevant to them. ...

Product Description
Military wives are among the women most vulnerable to abuse in our society: isolated from friends and family in a culture that ostracizes those who speak up, they face desperate financial circumstances and lack professional support in times of crisis. Deborah Harrison and her collaborators interview more than 100 survivors of abuse and their partners in this groundbreaking study of violence against women in military communities. Despite a policy of zero tolerance, abusive behavior continues, fostered by a culture centred on constant preparation for violent conflict and covered up by an ethos that demands members protect one another at all costs. The First Casualty is a riveting account of how military culture contributes to abuse, keeps it secret, and attempts to silence its victims. ... Read more

From the supplier: The success of African American women in the military underscores the efficacy of equal opportunity programs and shows that the military service is rich in job opportunities for women. African American military women have scored numerous achievements and accomplishments that have earned them the respect and confidence of their male counterparts. Among these successful women are Brigadier Gen Mary L. Saunders of the Air Force, Capt Lillian E. Fishburne of the Navy and Col Gilda A. Jackson of the Marine Corps. Army Major Janice M. Johnson and Capt Patricia Johnson also serve as role models.

Product Description
This up-to-date and comprehensive electronic book on two CD-ROM discs provides the best collection available anywhere of reports and documents on women in the U.S. military, with details on training and gender issues, DACOWITS (Defense Advisory Committee on Women in the Services), sexual harassment and assaults, history (nurses, aviation, space programs, veterans, at war). There is coverage of military sexual assault and trauma, rape, crimes, victim and witness assistance, counseling, prevention, and response, and much more. Reports, courses, surveys, and documentation from the Department of Defense, Air Force, Army, Marines, Coast Guard, DOD Sexual Assault Prevention and Response (SAPR) offices and policy, and the Veterans Administration is included. There is coverage of sexual harassment at military service academies, and gender-relations information. The Defense Department Advisory Committee on Women in the Services (DACOWITS) was established in 1951 by then Secretary of Defense, George C. Marshall. The Committee is composed of civilian women and men who are appointed by the Secretary of Defense to provide advice and recommendations on matters and policies relating to the recruitment and retention, treatment, employment, integration, and well-being of highly qualified professional women in the Armed Forces. In addition, beginning in 2002, the Committee will provide advice and recommendations on family issues related to recruitment and retention of a highly qualified professional military. Historically, DACOWITS' recommendations have been very instrumental in effecting changes to laws and policies pertaining to military women. The Defense Department has engaged in a comprehensive review of personnel management and quality of life programs necessary to support today s force and a future force transformed in accordance with the vision of the 2002 Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR). The strategic plans that resulted from the 2002 QDR, which include the Military Personnel Human Resources Strategic Plan, QDR Military Compensation Review Report, and the Social Compact for Families, are providing a roadmap for action, laying out both short and long term changes, many with significant magnitude and duration. As the Department undertakes this radical transformation of human resource management, it is important to watch the effects of policy changes on the composition, utilization, and morale of the force. The DACOWITS has been charged with assisting in this process. The focus of the Committee s support will be targeted to military readiness as they address issues concerning women and families in the military as they undergo organizational transformation and deployment to support the strategic security needs of the United States. The Committee will provide a report to the Department of Defense at the end of each year or upon issue resolution. Information will be gathered through installation visits, business meetings, relevant reports and survey data, and input from individual Service and family members. This combination of research and first-hand experiences will provide a solid basis for recommendations. Studies indicate that most sexual assaults that occur in America are not reported to law enforcement. Underreporting poses a serious challenge, as the potential costs and consequences of sexual assault are extremely high. Chronic psychological consequences may include depression, post traumatic stress disorder and even attempted or completed suicide. Not only does sexual violence harm the individual victimized, it impacts public health. For the military, the potential costs are even higher as it can also negatively impact mission readiness. Service member risk their lives for one another and bear the responsibility of keeping fellow service members out of harm's way. Sexual assault in the military breaks this bond, and uni ...

Product Description
This is a NAVAL HEALTH RESEARCH CENTER SAN DIEGO CA report procured by the Pentagon and made available for public release. It has been reproduced in the best form available to the Pentagon. It is not spiral-bound, but rather assembled with Velobinding in a soft, white linen cover. The Storming Media report number is B330022. The abstract provided by the Pentagon follows: This report describes the assessment of Perceptions of Wellness and Readiness (POWR) among active-duty Navy and Marine Corps personnel. Supported by the Defense Women's Health Research Program, the purpose of this study was to obtain baseline prevalence and risk factor information on a representative sample of active-duty Navy and Marine Corps women and men worldwide and to provide relevant comparative data with civilian populations. The POWR Assessment consisted of three separate, but complementary components. The first and most comprehensive component was a large-scale survey in which respondents completed an in-depth self-report questionnaire that assessed six key issues, including reproductive health, medical history and nutritional status, mental health, lifestyle issues, occupational/environmental risks, and health services issues. This questionnaire study was based on a probability sample of approximately 10, 000 active-duty Navy and Marine Corps personnel. The second component consisted of physical measurements taken on a subsample of approximately 1,200 respondents to the main survey. The third component was a telephone interview drawn from volunteers responding to the main survey. This report includes background about the study and discussions of the sampling design, the data collection instruments, data collection methods, sample weighting and estimation procedures, and preliminary results. ...
