Afghan women train as pilots in Texas
Four women who are lieutenants in the Afghanistan military have come to the United States to study English at the Defense Language Institute at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas. But it's their dreams of piloting helicopters that could help change the future of women in their homeland.
These four Afghan women will spend anywhere from six to eight months in San Antonio at the base where they will be mastering the English language. After that, they'll move to Alabama where they'll train with the U.S. Army and learn how to be helicopter pilots.
You GO, Ladies! Good for you!
A chance to kill, what a thrill!!! And how repulsive it all is!!! That's about the only thing that the right-wing thugs are good at, getting more and more people to do their killing!!!
Thank you, Dan. I couldn't have said it better myself.
dan, does your passiveness allow you to disregard evil?
about time
