I am the former Director of @deptvetaffairs Center for Women Veterans. This opinion piece (which *purports* to support women vets) is inaccurate, condescending, and offensive. buff.ly/42aZT9s

The VSA believes the category "veteran" should be understood and examined critically. We include all people who have had their lives influenced by the military.

"Among traumatized veterans, there is a common theme with enormous implications: that others cannot possibly comprehend their suffering, that they don’t know how to return to a civilian world that now feels utterly alien."
“This has become an epidemic now because Russian artillery is like rain,” said Ksenia Voznitsyna, the director. She added, “We also work with those who were tortured while in Russian captivity.” @nicoletung6 nytimes.com/2023/08/15/world…
