We see their strong, determined faces in uniform. We see their unceasing exhibition of honor and courage while protecting our country. But there is something we don't see: victims of the system--the system with the mission to protect all people of America, including its servicemembers. In Camouflaged Sisters: Silent No More, twelve women strip away all comfort and protection to share the struggles they've faced, not on the battlefield, but instead in places they never expected--in their homes, in their barracks, amongst friends. These are the stories of sexual trauma, domestic violence, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, and many other dangerous challenges women in the military fight every day. This book gives a voice to the warrior who has suffered in silence, the soldier who has been plagued by pain, and the woman who will no longer stand for injustice but will rise up as a victor and speak her truth.
