Women’s History Month:Facebook Page That Highlights Female Troops Overseas

 Women’s History Month is a special month for women across the United States. It’s the best time to celebrate women’s contributions towards history and to commemorate everything they have done to accelerate equality for all.

There’s a variation of ways to celebrate this special month such as: attending women leadership events, purchasing products from NWHP’s store, reading literature that spotlights women in history and by web 2.0.

 If you don’t know what Web 2.0 is, it’s Facebook, Twitter, Blogs or the internet. Boots In The Sand, A Facebook page, is celebrating womens history month by highlighting a female troop every day.  This facebook page  is designed to showcase 50K troops currently serving in Iraq.  

 The troop’s team leader is SPC Elizabeth Lynch (cc’ed), an outstanding Soldier who coordinates with public affairs offices and units for the stories.  History ( or better yet “Her-story”) takes place every day and through this Facebook page, people can learn more about American women’s contributions overseas. So please check them out today.
