Not to mention that having four four stars that are women is actually a representation of the demographics of the military 30 years ago, you can’t make qualified service members for four stars out of thin air because the current political situation demands it they have to have decades of experience. The real problem at hand is why does the US have 39 Four Star Generals and nearly 1000 Flag Officers? There were less four stars during WW2 with ten times the number of servicemen.

As ex WRAF, I am extremely proud of these women, knowing how hard it has been to keep your head down and get the job done. Working in a predominantly male environment where every mistake is overblown and every success credited equally to brilliant male sponsors. So to achieve their senior ranks has taken more than just the usually buoyant organisational and leadership excellence; it has taken considerable tenacity and resilience to overcome the suppression of rage at the deliberate and willful put downs they will have endured. The 'who did you sleep with to get that promotion' mentality vocalised in stereo, and for years. So thank you for taking all of it for the team, and for those who value your leadership your mentoring and coaching skills, your not ever quitting and eventually winning. I hope there are more of you to follow. Thank you for your service.

A young man, who I now know is Gen Jacqueline Van Ovost’s nephwew pulled over immediately after spotting me, jumped out enthusiastically with a toolbox, and hopped into action, pulling up KZbin videos on how we could fix the issue, staying with me, and helping get my bike back in good shape with another young man.

Spent 33 years in the United States Navy retired as an 06 (CAPT), never had a bad day working for female leaders, in fact my last tour in the Pentagon was working for a female one star and it turned out to be the best leader I ever had. When I enlisted in 1979 women where a rarity but over the years just as these 4 leaders say, the number of women doing amazing things has grown exponentially. Unfortunately there are still hardcore jerks who have no interest in changing with the times, however most of those losers are getting smaller in numbers. When I was commissioned in 1988 30% of my OCS class was female, I’m sure those numbers are at least 50% today.

The women liaison on set for GI Jane was a Marine 1stLT from my company (HQ SVC BN 2D FSSG where I was an unprecedented E3 in position as the Company Admin Chief) and I remember my then BN XO, MAJ Jane Trusky stating in a conversation with our BN SGTMAJ ( a black female) how the military was finally changing. This sentiment was positive to me because my then 1STSGT Battaglia (ret) and our CG 2D FSSG, MG Harold Mashburn (RIP) spoke highly of this. In knowing of these women and many others who lead, a high school little sister of mine is currently the CMSGT of the Air Force and not a one of them has ever stated how difficult it was to rise. They always spoke about the opportunities presented. This was in stark contrast to my mother's experiences in the USAF from the late 70s to the mid-90s!

Spent 32 years in the Army. I'm so glad that we are seeing not just women leadership, but qualified leadership. We've surely seen women in our career with greater potential then Men, at least in my 32 years. Men forget they have Mothers! These Women may be Mothers, Grandmothers, but are 1000000% qualified. Thank you for your amazing service and walk in your life to be proud of as a Woman and military leader.

Wonderful, inspirational piece.

What an incredible experience of an interviewer 4 .4 star Generals most don't get to interview one let alone four.

Glad to see that in this present time of war and political tension, CBS is focused on the truly important angles 🤯

[@Matthew-tg5ts]

Women do not need to be in combat rolls. They lowered standards to allow women because of equality. Social bs has weakened our military and now we have bs like this if they could compete with men on same standard then I’d applaud but no.

Maybe think on it some more.

@@majortom8047 stay out of it you silly twit. CBS news has become garbage, and I support women's issues fully, just not the patronizing crap cbs news puts out.

What a great interview! But in the private sector, it isn't over. As a manager, I was given a project that had been deemed "impossible to complete". I did it anyway. They then gave up all pretense and just eliminated my position, effectively demoting me. Then they had the nerve to say how lucky I was. And not too long ago, I had a boss tell me I needed a certain appendage to do my job. I told him I would buy one immediately and asked him where he had gotten his.

Report him to the federal agency for sexual harassment if you are in a place to and want to
