Love My Rifle

Host Frank Stasio talks with Kayla Williams, author of “Love My Rifle More Than You: Young and Female in the US Army” (W.W.Norton/2005). Williams served five years in the military, including a year of deployment in Iraq. Her memoir is an account of the sexual tensions in combat zones, incompetent military leadership, and cultural misunderstandings between Americans and Iraqis. Since she returned home and published the book, she has spent most of her time navigating the VA health system. Listener Call-In. (59:00)
