Capt. Kristen Griest, one of the first women to earn the coveted Ranger tab, will once again make history by becoming the Army’s first female infantry officer.
Griest is expected to graduate from the Maneuver Captain’s Career Course on Thursday and earn the right to wear the distinctive blue infantry cord, officials confirmed to Army Times.
IMO as an officer from the Military Police Corps she should be well equipped to make the transfer to Infantry.
