Marine Corps to assign first female infantry officer
Marine Corps plans to assign a female officer to the infantry after her anticipated graduation from the 13 week Infantry Officer Course at Twentynine Palms California. The lieutenant would lead a 40 member platoon marking a historic change in a service long cited for gender bias and a recent online scandal involving nude photographs of female Marines. The graduation follows a demanding program that weeded out about a quarter of participants and forms part of broader Pentagon efforts to fully include women in combat roles.
