Abstract

This podcast series reflects how war impacts all of us by listening to the different perspectives of those that have lived it, understanding how the media shapes our views of war, understanding our own feelings, and learning life skills for managing stress, fear, and anxiety. Our goal is to educate, remind you that you aren’t alone, and give you tools to navigate living and watching war.

Part Two – Being female and navigating the perceptions of others while in the military during deployment and the return home.

The Face of War is a podcast series including interviews and discussions with individuals within the University of Nebraska at Omaha community focused on the direct and indirect experiences of war. Participants provide their personal stories as veterans, civilians, and professionals covering a wide range of conflicts including WWII, Vietnam, and Post-9/11 events.
