These were the basic topics I identified as being meaningful divisions of the transcribed text. Though the interviews were not necessarily chronological in their nature, I rearranged the stories into a chronology for purposes of dramatic structure:
1. The Beginnings
2. Joining Up
3. Family connections/reactions
4. Boot Camp
5. Advanced training
6. Deployment/Career
7. Experiences
7a. Local Nationals
8-8a. Motherhood/relationships
9. Sexism/abuse
9a-b. Women strong/changing culture
10-10a. Getting out/getting help
11. Health Issues
12. Being a veteran/civilian world issues
13. Conclusions
