When the 9/11 attacks paralyzed the United States, a wave of patriotism swept the nation, and Norley found herself swept by the wave. She left the comfort of the States and decided to get out to the field in Iraq and served as a combat veteran in Fallujah and Ramadi, and also as a mental health specialist in the field helping soldiers returning home.

A believer in the US Army’s missions overseas, Norley knew that she had a long way to go. While still on active duty, Norley gave an interview to Stars and Stripes in 2004 saying much needed to be done.

“If they told me tomorrow I could go home … I wouldn’t be satisfied I’m finished with what I set out to do.”

Norley completed her basic training in Ft. Jackson, South Carolina before setting off for medical training in Ft. Sam Houston, Texas. She joined the 1st Cavalry Division of Fort Hood in Texas as part of the first reinforcements and was deployed to Iraq in 2003. Following her retirement, Norley began working as a veteran’s rights advocate for Vets for Freedom. Over the years, Norley has also campaigned for increasing funding to the American troops.

Oliver, who was working for the Daily Show took refuge with Norley and Vets for Freedom members, who helped to hide Oliver from security.

The pair tied the knot in October of 2011 and have two sons, their first child, Hudson was born on 12 November 2015, while not much is known about the pair’s second son born in 2018.

When asked about his wife, Oliver says that she is an ‘American with a capital A’. The late-night host has been frank about how Korley has changed his views on America.

“She grounds me in the fact that what I do doesn’t really matter at all, and also I’m a little more defensive of how America is perceived overseas. America takes a lot of [expletive], much of it well earned, from the rest of the world. And yet when something terrible goes down, people are waiting for Americans to fall out of the sky and help them.”
