520 _a"The Very Few, the Proud documents a generation of changes to accession and assignment policies pertaining to women seeking to serve in the U.S. Marine Corps between 1977 and 2001. This history intentionally ends at the threshold of the Global War on Terrorism - the gateway to current history. Anderson's research follows the changes in social and gender distinctions, in definitions of combat and combat support, and the belief in the value of using the best person to fill a military billet regardless of gender by voters, legislators, and military leadership that developed during this period. The Very Few, the Proud draws upon hundreds of personal accounts of women who served during the period, personal archives of Marine Corps leaders, and journalistic accounts of the treatment of women in and by the U.S. military."- Back cover.
