It's Ladies' Flight, oh what a flight
When President Obama lifts off later today in Marine One, for the quick chopper trip from the White House to Andrews Air Force Base, he'll be taken there by an all-female crew. That crew was assembled in honor of the pilot, Maj. Jennifer L. Grieves, who last year became the first female Marine One helicopter aircraft commander, and whom the White House tells us is today flying her last day in that rotation. Marines say she is headed to Command and Staff College in Quantico, Va.
Grieves, 38, of Glendale, Ariz., will be accompanied by copilot Maj. Jennifer L. Marino, of Palisade, Colo., and crew chief Sgt. Rachael A. Sherman, of Traverse City, Mich.
