Christie Douglas assumes co-hosting duties for the second time on the podcast and she brings the goods again. Not only was Christie the first female Veteran to come on, she still is! We talked about why that is and hopefully the hesitance will wear off in the future. Christie joined the Army as a 88K - Water Craft Operator in 2000 and after 20 yrs the stories are still rich and fun to hear about. For those of us that had no contact with Army Boat Crews this is a new world of knowledge. Christie walks us through her time in Puerto Rico, Kuwait and up and down the Persian Gulf delivering essential goods and equipment to forward staging areas and into the hands of those that require it. It takes an Army to lean forward and the be the baddest on earth, it takes boats!
Overcoming extraordinary situations during service is what Veterans do, however, our female service members and Veterans deal with not only the fear of death, but military sexual trauma. I have learned that there are very few female Veterans that have not been a victim of military sexual assault and/or trauma. Christie is committed to the Veteran community and especially to the female Veteran community, hoping that more female Veterans share the way ahead on the podcast or in another area to bring solutions and a way ahead. Don't close your ears, eyes and minds to this issue, we don't deserve the glory as individuals.
Christie has been engaging the Veteran community since she has been here at Oklahoma State University, working with the Student Veterans of America to help build the Veteran student community here. Her advice is to get into school and tackle like you did all the other challenges during service, she has very sound advice for sure.
Everyone stay safe out there, look out for your Battle, Ranger, Boat Buddy or any other term you use. Stay blessed!
