SOFX The Crossroads of Special Operations
On July 9th the first women walked the stage and graduated to become a Green Beret and officially receive her Special Forces tab. There have been women before who have completed the course but were never allowed to become a Green Beret due to their gender. Lt. Gen Fran Beaudette, the Commanding General for the U.S. Army Special Operations Command, spoke about the accomplishment to the USASOC Public Affairs office and said “From here, you will go forward and join the storied formation of the Green Berets where you will do what you are trained to do: challenge assumptions, break down barriers, smash through stereotypes, innovate, and achieve the impossible.”
