Unique etchings, one-of-a-kind drawings and long-forgotten diaries tell of women in the Revolutionary and Civil Wars who disguised themselves as men to serve the cause of freedom. Photographs and early newsreel footage capture women answering the call in World Wars I and II; and film and video interviews continue the story into the modern era with military women who are breaking down barriers on land and sea, and in the air.<\/p>\n
