Original tape date: June 17, 2008.

In this episode, Sheryl tackles an issue of sobering import, our female warrior. They are the women who have volunteered to serve in the military. Journalism Professor Helen Benedict of Columbia University has met and interviewed many of them for her forthcoming book, "The Lonely Soldier: The Private War of Women Serving in Iraq." They are in many cases fighting two wars at once - within their units and those they were asked to fight against.
