Two women make Army Ranger history
Fox News - 8/21/15
Quote:
Capt. Kristen Griest, 26, of Orange, Connecticut, and 1st Lt. Shaye Haver, 25, of Copperas Cove, Texas,
will become the first women to wear the Army's coveted Ranger tab when they graduate
alongside 94 male soldiers Friday at Fort Benning.
…
Spc. Christopher Carvalho, a medic in the same Ranger school class,
said his skepticism ended on the first road march when the women
left many of their male counterparts far behind.
…
Classmates 2nd Lt. Michael Janowski and 2nd Lt. Zachary Hanger both told of how
Haver and Griest jumped in to help carry heavy loads when other male trainees were too fatigued to assist.

Apparently, one soldier still couldn't appreciate the irony of his ingrained orientation:

Hanger called the women "absolutely physical studs"
