Colonel Martha McSally was a pilot in the United States Air Force. She was the first American woman to fly in combat since the 1991 lifting of the prohibition of women in combat. McSally is also the first woman to command a USAF fighter squadron, the 354th Fighter Squadron (354 FS) based at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base.

in 2001 Martha McSally successfully challenged the military policy that required US and UK servicewomen stationed in Saudi Arabia to wear the body-covering abaya when traveling off base in the country.

Indeed. Correct.

She flew an A-10 in Afghanistan. I’m more concerned that, from a quick review of her campaign website, she doesn’t make any position statements. “Elect me, I’m a Hero” isn’t a real confidence building slogan, IMHO.
