What is C♀MBAT?
C♀MBAT is an online forum for female veterans by female veterans. We are here to empower our sisters with a platform to share their stories, express themselves freely and creatively.
Female vets include and are not limited to: active duty, retired, the honorable/dishonorable discharged, international service members, spouses, and even the Coast Guard!
Welcome to C♀MBAT, Ladies! We look forward to serving you!
