The role of women in the military is often misunderstood or viewed as secondary to the role of men. In this episode of KSJD's monthly Veteran's Affairs program, Austin Cope talks with military veterans Darla Sanders and Nancy Nelligan about their experiences as women in the military and how the perception of women serving in the armed forces has changed over the past few years.

Austin Cope is a former Morning Edition host for KSJD and now produces work on a freelance basis for the station. He grew up in Cortez and hosted a show on KSJD when he was 10 years old. After graduating from Montezuma-Cortez High School in 2010, he lived in Belgium, Ohio, Spain, northern Wyoming, and Himachal Pradesh, India before returning to the Cortez area. He has a degree in Politics from Oberlin College in Ohio.
