Veterans Health Administration Update VAntage Point Blog
Chief Consultant for Women Veterans Health: I worried that a woman might come to a VA facility, have a negative experience, and be instantly turned off and go away; that she would never receive the excellent health care she deserves. The story that Staff Sergeant Jennifer Hunt shared in her guest post is what my colleagues and I are working every day to change.

Soldiers' Angels has found a new niche in assisting our deployed service members with a team called Ladies of Liberty. This team focuses on the needs of deployed female service members. Our organization understands that females are instrumental in the current war (as in the past), and make special efforts to support them in their missions while showcasing our appreciation for their service. We assist with supplies for their unique health and hygiene needs, and help them experience a few pampering moments to rejuvenate and "be good to themselves." For more information: LadiesofLiberty@SoldiersAngels.org
When you were born, an angel smiled, As you became a child, an angel sat on your shoulder. When you became a teen, an angel held your hand. As you went to war, an angel walked down the road with you, And, when you died, another angel got their wings.
Lady of Liberty it's your Birthday this day! For all that you do, we all shout "Hurrah!" We commend and salute and send wishes of love. May every step be guided by angels above.

You're a Lady of Liberty this I can see. You're a brave selfless hero fighting freedom for me. So on this your Birthday the least I can do, is stand in honor as I salute you. Thank you for your courage and listen as I say, there's noone as deserving of a Happy Birthday!
