I'm pretty confident neither are infantry. Report shows that they are not being assigned to a Ranger unit. I'm hoping that no standards were adjusted to make this happen. I am confident however that these are to very impressive Soldiers, who were able to accomplish something many males could not. 1SG Private RallyPoint Member Tue, 18 Aug 2015 18:05:13 -0400 2015-08-18T18:05:13-04:00 Response by COL Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 18 at 2015 6:07 PM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/now-that-two-women-soldiers-are-about-to-graduate-ranger-school-how-long-before-they-get-a-chance-to-command-a-missions?n=900085&urlhash=900085 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I&#39;m confused by your question. What do you mean when you ask about commanding a mission? They are going to go back to their branches and move on to a leadership position. They will have missions every day. Are you talking about leading people into combat or what?
