Thank you.
It's interesting, because I've been talking to a lot of women veterans in the last several weeks, and one of the things I've heard repeatedly is that not having the proper integration occur means we're losing a huge opportunity, because women aren't feeling they can engage. If they could engage in a more meaningful way, there would be a lot more innovation, perhaps, in our military. I think an important part to talk about is the heaviness of this weight and the opportunity that there is on the other side of it.
I don't have a lot of time, but I know your specialty is the field of reproductive health.
One of things I've learned, just from the conversations I've had, is that there are particular ramifications for the reality of how invisible women who serve our country are in terms of their service and then later on as veterans. I'm just wondering if you could give us any examples of where this would be the case, so that we could better understand it as a committee.
