Two women break barrier of Army Ranger School
Clip: 8/18/2015 | 10m 29s
Will the first women to finish Ranger School change what’s off limits in the military?
For the first time, two women have completed the Army’s rigorous Ranger School training program. But unlike their fellow male graduates, they will not yet be allowed to serve in elite Ranger units, due to the Pentagon’s current ban on women in combat. Judy Woodruff talks to Gayle Tzemach Lemmon of the Council on Foreign Relations and retired Col. Ellen Haring of Women in International Security.
