The Army's first female infantry recruit, a 25-year-old police officer from Louisiana, will report to basic training next year. Tammy Grace Barnett took the oath of enlistment Thursday at Military Entrance Processing Station Shreveport. She plans to serve in military occupational specialty 11X, one of a series of MOSs that opened to women April 1.

Not going to make it. There was o my one girl I ever saw that would hack it and I'm not sure she was even a girl.

I guess she'll get a whole bay to herself, one that DS's can't enter without announcing themselves. That sounds fair.

Has anyone been to Ralph and Kacoo's recently? I haven't been in over 20 years but anecdotal evidence suggest that their waitstaff remains subpar.

That was my first thought, but she's not reporting to basic training until next year. I imagine they're will more females than just her.

I figured Ft.Benning met the female quota when we let the Cav Scouts on post.
