Soldiers in Skirts: WACs in the Vietnam War

About this event

During the height of the Vietnam War, the first women from the Women’s Army Corps (WAC) arrived overseas as part of a new program to help train Vietnamese women for their own Corps. In this program the U.S. Army Women’s Museum will lead us through the years of the Vietnam War, exploring women’s roles as they served their country as soldiers and nurses. Exploration takes place through newspapers, photographs, and oral testimonies about this period during the Cold War. You will recieve a Zoom link through email when you register for the program. This program is being held in partnership with the John C. Hart Memorial Library.
