Former United States Marine Corps officer Vernice Armour, who earned her wings in 2001, was the first African American female combat pilot in the United States. She flew above the deserts of Iraq in her attack helicopter, engaging the enemy and scouting the roads from her cockpit, making sure they were safe for her fellow Marines and soldiers on the ground. After completing two combat tours in the Gulf, Armour left the Marines in 2007 and is now a professional speaker. #BlackHistoryMonth
