- Description
- Aan de hand van interviews met vrouwelijke soldaten en veteranen, beschrijft auteur de problemen en strategieën van vrouwen om enerzijds niet te vrouwelijk over te komen, omdat ze dan geen overwicht en gezag bij ondergeschikten hebben, en anderzijds ook weer niet te mannelijk, omdat ze dan als rivalen van de mannen of als lesbisch worden beschouwd.

- Description
- Following the 1945 attack on Pearl Harbor and America's declaration of war on Japan, the U.S. War Department allowed up to five hundred second-generation, or 'Nisei', Japanese American women to join the Women's Army Corps and, in smaller numbers, the Army Medical Corps. Through in-depth interviews with surviving Nisei women, Moore provides firsthand accounts of their service.
