50 years of women flying in the U. S. Navy

It's Super Bowl time, and this year, an all-female air crew will execute the pre-game flyover to honor 50 years of women flying in the navy. 

In addition, on the field, the NFL will honor Captain Joellen Drag Oslund, USNR (Ret), who was in the first group of six women to enter United States Navy flight training in Pensacola, FL. She was the fourth female to complete her flight training and the first to earn her wings as a navy helicopter pilot! Even better, she flew the H-46!

Thank you, Captain Oslund, for paving the way for pilots like me!
