Say the word ‘veteran’, and what do you see? An elderly gent with a lapel full of medals? 🎖️
As Kelley Austin, a former medic in the Royal Air Force, points out, you don’t immediately associate the word veteran with women. And that lack of visibility can be an issue, especially if you’re leaving a military career and wondering what the heck to do next.
Because what do you do when you have to wave goodbye to a support network and community you’ve known your entire adult life?
