Leigh Ann Hester (born 12 January 1982)[2] is a United States Army National Guard soldier. While assigned to the 617th Military Police Company,[3] a Kentucky Army National Guard unit out of Richmond, Kentucky,[3] Hester received the Silver Star for her heroic actions on 20 March 2005 during an enemy ambush on a supply convoy near the town of Salman Pak, Iraq.[4]
Hester is the first female U.S. Army soldier to receive the Silver Star since World War II and the first ever to be cited for valor in close quarters combat.[5]
Hester enlisted in the U.S. Army in April 2001.
In Iraq,[3] Hester's military police squad consisting of eight men and two women in three Humvees were shadowing a 30-truck supply convoy when approximately 50 insurgent fighters ambushed the convoy with AK-47, RPK machine gun fire, and rocket propelled grenades (RPG). The squad moved to the side of the road, flanking the insurgents and cutting off their escape route. Hester maneuvered her fire team through the kill zone and into a flanking position, where her squad leader, Staff Sergeant Timothy F. Nein, and she assaulted a trench line with hand grenades and M203 grenade launcher rounds. Nein and Hester assaulted and cleared two trenches. During the 25-minute firefight, Hester killed 3 insurgents.[6]
When the battle was over, 27 insurgents were dead, six were wounded, and one captured. Sergeants Nein and Hester were both awarded the Silver Star.[3][6] Nein's medal was later upgraded to the Distinguished Service Cross.[7]
Also awarded the Silver Star in this ambush was Specialist Jason Mike, a platoon medic who took up and simultaneously fired an M4 carbine and M249 SAW light machine gun in defense of his comrades.[6]
Hester later transferred to the Tennessee Army National Guard.[1]
Hester took a brief break from the U.S. Army in 2009, and worked as an officer for a civilian law enforcement agency in a Nashville, Tennessee suburb. However, she returned to the military a short while later, in late 2010.[3][8]

Love It !!!! Use to spend a bit o time on the flight deck crushing them off the fantail at our escorts tailing us. Littered the IO with range balls from around the globe. And I still don't feel bad about choking a Turtle.
Veer and His gaggle of Pharisees
Just a thought, but you've presented yourself quite handily here as having committed an actionable offense at Adorama, Grand Larceny, in front of a company agent @HelenOster .
And now you're throwing out inflammatory commentary depicting Pharisees as bad guys in front of someone whose company owners are Hassidim? Are you seriously this dumb? If you had an extra brain cell besides what's needed for purely autonomic functions, you'd be contrite.
Between this and the green pit hair, I'm not feeling motivated...
Can't help but laugh my ass off at the above. It's pretty incredible, and god luv'm, good luck with all that.
Now then, in honor of that great Beetles Song, I give you Booty Tuesday.

don't get me wrong, I'm NOT complaining.....but I thought it was titty Tuesday.
This is about as motivational as it gets for me when it comes to songs. I could dig up the Music Video Thread, but this is fine. I thank my elder Sister's for introducing this to me in the late 60's. Oh how we rocked...........
