Yes I am Female Vet

Army Capt. Shaina Coss is the first woman to lead elite Army Rangers in combat.

Despite her trailblazing service, the 30-year-old from Fairfax, Virginia said in a publicly-released video that her “infantry path has been pretty typical.” After graduating from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in 2016 where she competed on the powerlifting team, Coss completed Army Ranger School — one of the first 10 women to ever do so — and then moved on to Fort Bragg where she led an infantry rifle platoon in the 82nd Airborne Division. Just months into being a platoon leader, she applied to be a part of the 75th Ranger Regiment, the Army’s elite special operations force.
