Women vets land at military museum
In a continuing effort to hon-
or military heritage from all eras
and all disciplines of service, the
Oregon Coast Military Muse-
um is currently focusing on the
more than eight percent of Ore-
gon’s veterans who are women.
An Oregon Department of
Veteran Affairs (ODVA) travel-
ing display entitled “I Am Not
Invisible” is currently on display
through Sept. 16. It showcas-
es 20 Oregon women veterans
from around the state, spanning
eras from WWII Navy nurse
Jean Wojnowski, who is cur-
rently 102 years old, to recent
vets from current conflicts.
The ODVA display compli-
ments the recently expanded
permanent display honoring
Oregon’s women Veterans. It
features multiple uniforms
ranging from WWII US Army
nurse Connie Van Hoomissen
to the USCG uniform more
recently worn by Florence res-
ident Amy Tregoning. Four
different uniforms are included
in the display, with additional
artifacts relating to Van Hoom-
issen’s service.
Rounding out the focus on
women Veterans is the cur-
rent oral history interview with
Elaine Wright. She served in

the Army National Guard from
1987 to 2003, leaving at the
rank of captain. She saw duty in
Panama, Korea and the Phil-
ippines. While in the Philip-
pines, she trained Philippine
army personnel on medical
support and how to fight Al
Qaeda.
You can view these displays
at the Oregon Coast Military
Museum, 2145 Kingwood St. in
Florence, which is open to the
public Wednesday through Sun-
day, from noon until 4 p.m.
