I can't find the image that had the four women crew in Afghanistan? I know there was an IotD with an all-female crew before... but even though it's not an IotD first, this shot of an all-woman C-130 crew, forwarded by xoB, is strangely compelling to me. Oh sure, there's the mystery of a military chick, with a firearm strapped to her thigh, who could kick your ass across the room -- maybe that's a part of it, I don't know. Or maybe it's the simple evidence that the world is changing, things are not what they were 40-50 years ago or even 10 years ago. Anyway, it seems like an image of the day.
