Episode 31: Women in the Military

Amplified Oklahoma Show Notes

November 16, 2018

Veterans Day was this past Sunday, and Amplified Oklahoma is observing the holiday by chronicling women’s military service and highlighting the service of one woman in particular. This month, we’ll be focusing on Rita Aragon of the Oklahoma Air National Guard, Oklahoma’s first female Brigadier General and later Major General. Our expert, Dr. Jennifer Murray, a military historian at Oklahoma State University, will help us relate her story to the broader picture of women’s military experiences.
