Though their names were classified for four months, news outlets have identified the Army’s first two female rangers.
1st Lt. Shaye Haver (pictured above) and Capt. Kristen Griest (pictured below) will receive their Ranger tabs on Friday at the Ranger graduation ceremony in Fort Benning. The two women have toiled for 120 days to earn this honor, and even repeated the most grueling portions of the training to continue advancing forward.
The Army still hasn’t confirmed the names of the female rangers, but reporters who observed the training from afar throughout the 120-day process were able to recognize the students.
Haver is an Army aviator who graduated from West Point in 2012. Griest of the Military Police graduated from West Point in 2011. After their upcoming graduation, hopefully more information about these amazing women will come to light.
