Women Veterans Recognition Day

Women Veterans Recognition Day, observed on June 12, honors the service and sacrifice of women in the U.S. Armed Forces. It marks the anniversary of the 1948 Women’s Armed Services Integration Act, which allowed women to serve as permanent, regular members of the military. This day recognizes the often-overlooked contributions of women veterans throughout history and advocates for their support and equality. It’s a time to say thank you and elevate their powerful stories.
