"Recently, a female successfully completed Special Forces Assessment and Selection and was selected to attend the Special Forces Qualification Course," Bymer said in a statement.

"We're proud of all the candidates who attended and were selected to continue into the qualification course in hopes of earning their Green Beret," Bymer added. "It is our policy to not release the names of our service members because Special Forces Soldiers perform discrete missions upon graduation."

The 24-day continuous assessment is an intense test of candidates' mental and physical endurance. Several women have attempted the gender-neutral test since January 2016, when the Department of Defense began accepting women for all armed combat positions, Bymer said.

[GameWalrus]

Incredible. I'm sure she's worked extremely hard for it. Best of luck to her in her career!

This shit is borderline impossible for most burly dudes, a woman passing this is absolutely phenomenal and deserves a ton of respect.

Dunno why this was rated disagree. If this is the training I'm thinking of, one of the days is walking up a mountain through tear gas, and maintaining combat awareness the whole way. And that's just one day, the course is over 2 weeks long and there are no breaks. Also, dropping out of the course permanently forbids you from retrying; you can retry if you are removed by medics or instructors due to an injury, but you'll have to start all over.
