PORT AU PRINCE, HAITI – A lot people still have the conception that the United States military is still “this man’s Army” but female soldiers are just as much a part of today’s armed forces as their male counterparts.
In addition, I was pleasantly surprised to meet two married couples who met in the military and married and are now serving together and deployed together in Haiti.
Both couples are assigned to the 407th Brigade Support Battalion in the Airborne Division from Fort Bragg as part of the relief mission in Port au Prince in Haiti.
The battalion was deployed after the earthquake and helps coordinate the deliver of supplies from the airport to other units and the Haitian people.
