THE PLEDGE IS THE FIRST MONUMENT IN THE NATION’S CAPITAL TO HONOR ALL WOMEN OF THE U.S. MILITARY.

“The Pledge” honors the commitment of our brave servicewomen, in all the jobs they do. It represents their pledge of faithful allegiance to our country and to protect and defend our freedom. There are very few monuments in the US featuring women and fewer yet honoring them for their great military service. The time has come.

The Military Working Dog handler is shown in full (generic) combat uniform doing a very dangerous job, emphasizing the capabilities of women, attributed to only men not long ago. It further inspires all women to realize their own strength of character and capabilities.
