What a Small Gift From a Civilian Means to This Army Veteran
Clara Driscoll was an Army officer for more than two decades. In Kosovo early in her career she met an Albanian woman who gave her a vial of lip gloss, a gesture of kindness Clara has never forgotten. Later, in Afghanistan, she wore an abaya as a sign of respect for the local population. Clara’s service taught her about the importance of seeking human connections and looking beyond differences.
