First Black female combat pilot in U.S. Department of Defense history

Captain Vernice G. Armour is the first Black female pilot in the Marine Corps, and the first Black female combat pilot in U.S. Department of Defense history. "I don’t think I knew I was going to do any of it when I was starting out...You learn tactics of how to ‘fight’ the aircraft. In the training squadron, you learn how to fly it. You need to know how to fight it when you go to war, go to battle; you learn to target, and how to come back home safely."
