Star Spangled Salute: A Soldier Makes Naval History

Today’s Star Spangled Salute honors Lt. Junior Grade Madeline Swegle who just did something for the first time in the 110-year history of aviation.  Madeline recently completed the Navy’s Tactical Air Strike training program making her the first Black female tactical jet pilot in the history of the Navy.  With this accomplishment, she could go on to fly fighters such as the F/A-18E/F Super HornetEA-18G Growler or F-35C Joint Strike Fighter.  Congratulations Madeline and thank you for your service.
