Women’s Ongoing Battle for Recognition

I am writing in response to Michael Haederle’s article “For the Forgotten” (April 29) in which he discusses the much-needed Vietnam Women’s Memorial by sculptor Glenna Goodacre.

Had women’s contributions to the war effort not been discounted and ignored in the first place, perhaps we wouldn’t have to wait until the third memorial to highlight them.

Perhaps if women were given proper credit for their work, they would not have to battle each time for recognition.
