2020 Pioneer Hall of Fame HonoreesThis year WMA is honored to have sponsored another selection to the WAI Pioneer Hall of Fame: U.S. Army’s First Women Rotary Wing Aviators! This group of nine female helicopter pilots represent the first women in rotary wing aviation to serve in the U.S. Army. These four lieutenants and five warrant officers proved women had a place in military aviation and blazed the trail forward for future generations of Army women. During the 1970s, these women displayed the pioneering spirit, persistence, and courage to earn their place in U.S. Army aviation. They include Lieutenants Sally Murphy, Linda Horan DuMoulin,Susan Dunwoody Schoeck, Beverly Birkholtz, and Warrant Officers Jennie Vallance, Diane Dowd, Susan Boring, Lavern Fransworth, and Mary Reid. See the video.
