This undated photo provided by the U.S. Army shows Lt. Gen. Ann E. Dunwoody. From its humble beginning 33 years ago at Fort Sill, Okla., the career of Ann E. Dunwoody is ascending to a peak never before reached by a woman in the U.S. military: four-star general. (AP Photo/US Army)
Done woody, indeed.
If she’s good at managing logistics, then this is excellent news.
Old news, but still good. She comes from a very long line military family, and it’s amazing she got to four star through only logistics.
Hope she does better than the 1 Star that screwed up that Baghdad prison.
Isn’t that cute.
Congratulations General.
I’m a former Marine (enlisted). 1981-1985. TOW missiles, Beirut in ‘83. So I was never an officer or anything, but before you get that 4th star, hadn’t you better conquer Europe or Asia or something? LOGISTICS???????
Could somebody please explain to me why there are so many insulting replies? Did I miss something?
All right, you Maggots! There are many women who are SO good at this. I have picked up, supplied, reminded, cooked, cleaned, nursed, driven, maintained the vehicles and kept the base camp fires lit for so long, I could do it in my sleep. I defy any guy to do it better. I can do it for weeks on end with no sleep AND work 45 or more hours a week doing it for pay.
I say SALUTE to his woman. The only thing that surprises me is that she managed a smile for the photo. She can do me one better.
He husband is a retired AIR FORCE colonel. Must be some interesting dinner conversations....
She was born at Fort Belvoir? Well, okay, it was nicer than Fort Dix or Fort Leonard Wood. But then, Fort Leonard Wood had some interesting nicknames.
I just have one question. Does Free Republic support our men and women in uniform, or not? Based on the replies to this thread, I think not. What say you?
Good for her!
I just watched “Gods and Generals” last night, mostly about Stonewall Jackson.
Now *there* was a general! “God’s hellcat.”
Robert E. Lee said, when Jackson’s arm was amputated, “He may have lost his left arm, but I have lost my right.”
Then shortly thereafter, Jackson died, a couple of months before Gettysburg.
I’m glad she was promoted to four-star general under Bush instead of under Obama.
Four Stars and no combat experience. Ya’ she will be a real asset. Affirmative action at its finest.
they never look like Laurie Dhue :(
Our next presidential candidate. Or if Sarah does agree to run, then she’ll be VP.
