The Front Lines

The women who have fought in combat are often seen as the most visible face of women in war. They are the ones who have risked their lives to defend their countries and their families.

But the women who have fought in combat are not the only ones who have been affected by war. The women who have been left behind to care for their families and communities have also faced great challenges.

The Home Front

The women who have been left behind to care for their families and communities have often been forgotten by history. But their stories are just as important as the stories of the women who have fought in combat.

The women who have been left behind have had to deal with the challenges of poverty, hunger, and disease. They have also had to deal with the challenges of violence and abuse.

The Aftermath

The women who have survived war have often faced great challenges in rebuilding their lives. They have had to deal with the physical and emotional scars of war. They have also had to deal with the challenges of reintegrating into their communities.

But the women who have survived war have also shown great resilience and strength. They have found ways to rebuild their lives and to create new opportunities for themselves and their families.

Necessary Targets: The Story of Women and War is a powerful and moving account of the experiences of women in war. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the impact of war on women and the role that women play in war.

The stories of the women in this book are a testament to the resilience and strength of the human spirit. They are a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope.
