Special Online Exhibit
A New Generation of Warriors

With text and images on four poster panels, as well as artifacts belonging to fallen Army CPL Jessica Ellis, the exhibit introduces the visitor to the expanding and rapidly evolving roles of military women—a necessary requirement to meet the ever-changing environment and the needs of an unconventional battlefield and undefined combat zone. Visitors learn about servicewomen’s duties, the weapons they carry and equipment they use. They see the uniforms they wear and how they spend their leisure time. There are intimate glimpses into e-mails and correspondence home and finally, the stark reality that combat and the enemy knows no gender as particular recognition is given to the fallen heroines of these wars.
