Lessons From Women Who Served in WWII
In her new book, military analyst Lena Andrews looks at American women in uniform during World War II. Some 350,000 American women enlisted, but their contribution to the war effort -- from D-Day to victory -- has long been overlooked. Andrews joins Walter Isaacson to discuss the women's auxiliary forces and their service to their country.
