Summary
America has been at war since 2001, and a sizeable percentage of the soldiers deployed have been women. Soldier Girls follows the lives of three of them over twelve years, on their paths to the military, overseas to combat, back home, then overseas again for two of them. We watch as they become friends, interact, and separate. We see the effects on their lives and their families. Deeply reported and powerfully moving, their story is truly groundbreaking
