The former Ranger and congressman who requested the performance records of Capt. Kristen Griest and Lt. Shaye Haver is about to get a taste of his own medicine.

In response to Rep. Steve Russell’s mission to find out whether the first two women to ever graduate from Army Ranger School really “deserved” Ranger tabs, a group of female West Point graduates are trying to find out whether Russell deserved his Ranger tab.

Brenda Sue Fulton–a member of the first West Point class to admit women, a former Army captain and the academy’s current chairwoman on the board of visitors–filed an Freedom of Information Act request Thursday to learn how well Russell performed during his own Ranger training. Russell graduated from Ranger School in the mid-1980s and served in the Army for 22 years. If his request to view Griest and Haver’s records is approved, than Fulton can probably get her hands on his records too.

“He like too many older men have biases about what women are capable of,” Fulton said. “Ranger instructors and their leaders are known for their integrity but somehow when women pass the standard, that integrity is no longer respected.”

The idea to turn the tables on Russell originated from a conversation on a private Facebook group of female West Point graduates. Having built careers in the military, the women were angry that Russell would doubt the achievements of female military members and assume that they were held to unfair standards.

“This is about the fact that these are the same kinds of objections we [female service members] have heard for 40 years. For some of us, enough is enough,” Fulton said.

Ranger School officials have also continually denounced rumors that Griest and Haver were given preferential treatment.
