Women In The War exhibit opens in Longview

Posted: Updated:

LONGVIEW (KYTX) -- An exhibit opens in Longview to highlight not men but women who have fought for our country.

The Gregg County Historical Museum downtown is hosting an exhibit called "Women In The War Effort" to show visitors how women, some from East Texas, have played pivotal roles in war history.

"It's important because females have always played primary roles in war, despite what you think there were females working in the Revolutionary War, there were females working in the Civil War," Nicole Joseph said.

The exhibit features interviews with World War II veterans and current members of the military. It runs through Sept. 21.
