Sobre este título

As part of our series with the 2025 Shannon Lecture Series, Sean Graham talks with Sarah Hogenbirk, who will deliver the opening lecture on Monday entitled 'Fighting for Their Place and Recognition: Canadian Servicewomen and Women Veterans in Post-Second World War Canada. The lecture will serve as a launch for Cold War Workers: Labour, Family, and Community in a Nuclear State, in which Sarah has a chapter entitled "Constructing the Military Career Woman, 1950s-60s." They discuss the legacy of women's Second World War service, how the Cold War impacted women's service, and the differences between the three armed services. They also chat about the roles in which women served, the differences in service pre- and post-unification, and the long-term impact of the Cold War era on women's service in the Canadian military.
