For Single Women Only: 7 Things You Should Know Before Joining The Military

By Selena Brown

This very short (short enough to read on your lunch break) yet informative e-book briefly explains in 30 minutes or less the good, bad, and ugly of the military from a woman's point of view. The topics discussed range from media reports of sexual assaults, to advice for 30-year-old women about joining the military at age 30.
This e-book was written specifically for free-spirited, single or divorced women (with no children) who have, or have had, an interest in joining the military. Even if you have no interest in joining the military you will still find some of the information to be quite interesting.
