Team Dunwoody.



Ann E. Dunwoody, after 33 years in the Army, is the first woman to become a four-star general. This is so amazing. Did you know there are 21 female generals in the Army?

"There is no one more surprised than I — except, of course, my husband. You know what they say, `Behind every successful woman there is an astonished man,'" said Dunwoody.

Read about her story here.

A promotion of a female to 4 star has been a long time coming, great to see!

Read Gen. Dunwoody's comment on an astonished husband in the press on Friday. Laughed out loud!

I like a woman doing awesome things and not forgetting to thank the man behind her. It evens out for all the males that thank the "little woman".

Good on her-now we need more of them! How many generals are there total? Doesn't seem there are a lot of female generals around..
