In late 2004, she volunteered to fill an open billet in a unit deploying to Al Asad Airbase in Iraq. On August 27, 2005, an indirect fire rocket impacted the base, and she suffered a shrapnel wound to the cheek. She would later learn that the shrapnel was just millimeters away from her maxillary artery, the main artery in the face. Though her doctor wanted to send her home, she insisted on returning to her unit. As a result of her shrapnel wound, she became the first female Gunnery Sergeant to be awarded the Purple Heart.</div> </div> <div> <div>LOC Contributor Names</div> <div>Rose Marie Grosshans Noël, Veterans History Project</div> </div> <div> <div>LOC Created/Published</div> <div>March 20 ????</div> </div> <div> <div>EEC Creators</div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/707" hreflang="en">Rose Marie Grosshans Noël</a></div> </div> <div> <div>EEC Source Day</div> <div>20</div> </div> <div> <div>EEC Source Month</div> <div>March</div> </div> <div> <div>EEC Source Year</div> <div>2012</div> </div> <div> <div>EEC Format</div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/3" hreflang="en">Audio</a></div> </div> <div> <div>EEC Type of Source</div> <div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/19" hreflang="en">Oral history</a></div> </div> </div> <div> <div>EEC Theme Topic</div> <div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/390" hreflang="en">Citizenship - Civic Duties</a></div> </div> </div> <div> <div>EEC Internal Notes</div> <div>No year is available for oral history interview- put 2012 because it occurred after she retired in 2011.</div> </div> <div> <div>EEC Index Number</div> <div>377</div> </div> <div>Off</div> <div> <div>EEC Theme</div> <div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/177" hreflang="en">Citizenship</a></div> </div> </div> <div> <div>EEC Topics</div> <div> <div><a href="/taxonomy/term/207" hreflang="en">Civic Duties</a></div> </div> </div> Tue, 03 Oct 2017 18:16:31 +0000 scollini 503 at https://eagleeyecitizen.org
