Ashley’s War is the true story of the first group of women selected to fight in combat in Afghanistan. They were selected for their unique ability to interact with the women and children of Afghanistan and joined their special operations counterparts on raids to collect vital intel that would have otherwise not been accessible. Prior to this group of women being selected, women were not able to fill combat positions in the Army. This book provides insight into how women can be just as useful in front line combat and how this group of women changed policy and how we fight wars as a country. It’s one of the few books I’ve listened to multiple times and every time I marvel at the strength these women possessed and the drive they had to fill combat roles and defend our country.
Carolyn Boron, 775TS/DD
