WWOHP Co-Chairpersons, Maureen Ryan Doyle and Charlene L. Martin, co-authors of Voices of Worcester Women and In Her Shoes, are interested in obtaining the oral histories of women who currently serve or who have served in the military. In addition, they are also seeking the stories of women whose spouses were deployed while they remained on the homefront.
While WWOHP has collected over 300 oral histories from women in Central Massachusetts, few of those stories are from women who served their country. Have you served in the military or do you know a woman who has? Would you be willing to share your story? Please consider participating in this project. The interview would take about one hour and would be arranged at your convenience.
If you have any questions, please contact either Ms. Martin, chmartin@townisp.com, or Ms. Ryan Doyle, Mryandoyle@aol.com.
