The Navy announced a historical achievement Thursday after a female sailor became the first woman to successfully complete the grueling Naval Special Warfare training and receive her pins.
"Becoming the first woman to graduate from a Naval Special Warfare training pipeline is an extraordinary accomplishment, and we are incredibly proud of our teammate," Rear Adm. Hugh Howard, commander of the U.S. Naval Special Warfare Command said. "Like her fellow operators, she demonstrated the character, cognitive and leadership attributes required to join our force." Following their graduation, the SWCC’s will either provide additional training or report to a Special Boat Team – which are responsible for transporting Navy SEALs during operations and conducting their own covert missions.More Related News
