Special Forces Assessment and Selection

The first female soldier graduated from the Special Forces Qualification Course (SFQC) on July 9, 2020 at a ceremony held at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. She received her Special Forces Tab and donned her Green Beret during the ceremony along with her other classmates.

The soldier is a member of the 3rd Battalion, 20th Special Forces Group of the Florida National Guard. The first female Green Beret will likely be assigned to an enlisted Special Forces Engineer Sergeant position on a Special Forces operational detachment ‘Alpha’. The 20th group is headquartered in Alabama with battalions and companies located in several states in the eastern part of the United States. She was due to graduate in April 2020 but had to repeat part of the training.

“Each and every one of you demonstrated the ability to meet the baseline standards and competencies for admission to our Regiment. From here, you will go forward and join the storied formation of the Green Berets where you will do what you are trained to do: challenge assumptions, break down barriers, smash through stereotypes, innovate, and achieve the impossible. Thankfully, after today, our Green Beret Men and Women will forever stand in the hearts of free people everywhere.”

Lt. Gen. Fran Beaudette, Commanding General for U.S. Army Special Operations Command, July 9, 2020 speaking at SFQC graduation ceremony.

She can be proud she had to qualify for graduation with having to meet exactly the same qualifications as the men.

Despite the name being "Francis" this is a male.

Yeah,and what is Santa bringing you for Christmas this year?

The left first trying to slip this crap through in the late 60's,when LBJ was President. I was at Bragg at the time,and remember her being flunked out,and then the SF Training Group command was given orders by the Pentegram to run her through again. When she flunked the second time,the SFTG CO was ordered to pass her,and refused.

IIRC,he,a SGM,and a MSG were forced into early  retirement over their refusal to cooperate. Evidentially the lefties in the WH decided it was a lost cause,because they gave up then. LBJ leaving office probably had a lot to do with it.

I guess with The Cretin in Charge at the WH now,they decided to give it another shot now that West Point is graduating actual communists and commissioning them as officers in the US Army.

A couple of things you can bet your ass on is that she never really passed the course,and that she will be given hand-picked assignments to insure she is quickly promoted up to field grade rank so she can command a SF Group. Anybody that tries to get in the way will be booted out of the army.
