Women Veterans Recognition Day 

75-Year Salute to Women in the Military

Celebrate Women Veterans Recognition Day, June 12 at the Virginia War Memorial with Richmond VA Medical Center as we honor and celebrate America’s military women on this historic day. Join us for a festive afternoon of recognition, celebration, fun, food, and appreciation for the some 3 million women patriots who have served and are serving this nation so proudly and well.

 

Speakers from the Veterans Affairs Office of Women's Health and Command Sgt. Maj. (Ret) Michele Jones discussing topics that affect Women Veterans of past, present, and future. We will serve breakfast and lunch to all attendees. Additionally there will be a workshop on hiring that includes free professional headshots with makeup application. Please join us in a salute to all Women Veterans for 75 years of all-voluntary service. All are welcome to attend.

 

Celebrated each year on June 12 in recognition of the anniversary of the 1948 Women’s Armed Services Integration Act signing, 2023 is particularly significant as it is the 75TH ANNIVERSARY of that groundbreaking legislation for America’s military women, granting women a permanent place and an opportunity for a career in the nation’s military. On this special day designated to honor America’s military women, past and present, come celebrate with us!
