Through the Eye of the Storm

Cholene Espinoza, an openly lesbian Air Force Academy graduate, former U-2 reconnaissance pilot, and embedded Iraq War journalist, has just published a memoir about her work in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, called Through the Eye of the Storm.

In the wake of Katrina, we mentioned a former SLDN client who was a part of the recovery effort. Cholene's is another inspiring story of one person motivated to make a difference along the devastated Gulf Coast. Like the anonymous service member who blogged in the days following Katrina, Cholene was moved to action and continues to make a real difference in the lives of hurricane victims.
