U.S. Marine Capt. Anneliese Satz recently made history, becoming the first female Marine to pilot an F-35B fighter jet.

The first flight in an F-35 is by yourself,” Satz said in the release. “The syllabus thoroughly prepares you for that first time you take off and for every flight after that, it’s an exhilarating experience.”

She attributes her success to hard work and great training programs by the Marine Corps.

Now, she will join a unit called the Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 121, the Green Knights in Iwakuni, Japan.

1. I'll never forget when the U.S. Army got its first female tank commander.

The toxics were shrieking "POLITICAL CORRECTNESS RUN AMOK!!!", completely unware, I guess, that the Army doesn't do social promotion. If someone can't do the job, they don't get the job.
