Granted, this occurred awhile ago, but it was on FoxNews.com today; it seemed to fit with the trend of recent firsts getting mentioned in the press.

joe1234 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I'm more surprised that there hasn't been one to graduate up until this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BattleRattle Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 The article doesn't specifically mention what year she graduated from UPT, but considering she has already retired as a Lt Col and has over 11,000+ commercial hours, it happened a while ago.

M2 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 This pic may have provided a few clues as to the timeframe... If not that, then maybe this nugget... She immediately tried to participate in the university’s ROTC (Reserve Officer Training Corps) program but was told women were not allowed. Or the fact that it talks about her going to the 'CBPO.' Regardless, props to her, she did well! Cheers! M2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pawnman Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I'm more surprised that there hasn't been one to graduate up until this point. What will PA do when we run out of "first" minorities to put through UPT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M2 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 What will PA do when we run out of "first" minorities to put through UPT? Well, now that they can add 'gay' in front of every minority there is; that opens up a whole new list now, doesn't it?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
