Denise (Hulbert) Rohan joined the Army in 1974. Here, she’s pictured at Fort Lee, Va., where she trained to specialize in electronic and communications repair.
At basic combat training, Denise was challenged mentally and physically, but so were her fellow recruits. They were all in the same place, fighting through the same things, and they were all homesick in some way. But around these struggles, they slowly formed a bond, becoming a “family” that depended on one another, she said.
