    S5E23 Forgotten Warriors with Sarah Percy

    In this episode, Rachel Perez chats with Sarah Percy, author of Forgotten Warriors: The Long History of Women in Combat. Her book examines how the history of women in combat has been forgotten, denied, and even actively suppressed. She traces the history of where and how women fought and explains why it's a crucial history for today's society - never more so than in a political climate where anti-DEI initiatives are once again deliberately erasing this history.
