During those military years, Donna taught Reading Improvement at a Community College, 3 year olds at a pre-school, outdoor skills to Girl Scouts, and English to Yemeni military members. She worked at the American Embassy in Sana’a Yemen as the Community Liaison Officer and was awarded a Meritorious Honor Award for improving post morale and quality of life.
