Steel-Plated


How did a woman sustain being a woman at war?

The image of a strong woman in the military has come to symbolize the progress that has been made in gender equality. Women have served in the military for centuries, but it is only in the past 70 years that they have been allowed to serve in combat roles. As more and more women have broken down barriers and risen through the ranks, the image of a strong woman in the military has become a powerful symbol of women's empowerment and equality. 

By intervening the national archive and reading personal stories from the past I researched the importance of the female presence in combat in the past and nowadays.
