“I wanted to write specifically for women,” says Amanda. “While there are guides that cover the different branches, ways to serve, and preparing for military life, I wanted to offer deeper advice and feedback, from me and other women who have served, on what it is like to be a woman in the military.”
Amanda Huffman, Air Force veteran and host of Women of the Military podcast, wrote A Girl’s Guide to Military Service: Selecting Your Specialty, Preparing for Success, Thriving in Military Life to answer these questions and more.
