LOS ALAMITOS - Raquel Ramirez, 30, spent eight years in the U.S. Army. Two of those years were in Afghanistan where she had several jobs: gate guard, paratrooper and assistant gunner in a Humvee column. In the column, her role was simple – stay low and be ready to take over if the main gunner was killed. In a worst-case scenario, she'd have to pop out of the armored vehicle's top hatch and keep the guns firing until the convoy reached safety.
Raquel Ramirez, 30, from Capistrano Beach, struts her stuff during a veterans fashion show in Los Alamitos to raise money for G.I. Hope, an organization dedicated to helping female veterans find transitional housing and cope with the transition from warrior to private citizen, Sunday. Ramirez spent eight years in the U.S. Army.
Fast-forward to Sunday evening.

The lack of optics on this thread is disappointing.
I’ll bet I’m not the first one in with this famous magnificence.
I surrender.
I failed to heed your warning and paid the price.
The lack of optics on this thread is disappointing is a blessing.
We do, however, thank her for her service in defense of our nation.
Absolutely we do, as we gratefully thank all our soldiers for their sacrifice. But I wouldn't want to see most of them in high heels, either.
Same here. Idiot me.
To be fair, I'd take her - in combat by my side.
Down here, things are looking up.
They really knock me out.
Can they ‘goosestep”? lol
A large woman, wearing a sleeveless sun dress, walked into a bar in London. She raised her right arm, revealing a huge, hairy armpit as she pointed to all the people sitting at the bar and asked, “What man here will buy a lady a drink?”
The bar went silent as the patrons tried to ignore her. But down at the end of the bar, an owly-eyed drunk slammed his hand down on the counter and bellowed, “Give the ballerina a drink!”
The bartender poured the drink and the woman chugged it down. She turned to the patrons and again pointed around at all of them, revealing the same hairy armpit, and asked, “What man here will buy a lady a drink?”
Once again, the same little drunk slapped his money down on the bar and said, “Give the ballerina another drink!”
The bartender approached the little drunk and said, “I say, old chap, it’s your business if you want to buy the lady a drink, but why do you keep calling her the ballerina?’”
“As far as I’m concerned”, the drunk replied, “any woman who can lift her leg that high has got to be a ballerina!”
Ukraine your neck to get a better view.
