Retired Colonel Linda Aldrich discusses the challenges and rewards of breaking down the barriers to becoming one of the first women in the U.S. Air Force Missileer field.

CORRECTION: Following this recording, Col. Aldrich requested the following clarification be noted: When speaking about the gender-specific crews, Col. Aldrich stated she was in the 373rd.

Per Col. Aldrich, “That was an error (Titan Sq). Initially Nancy and I were in the 508 SMS, Sandy and Marcia were in the 509th, and Bev and Lydia were in ERCS 510th. I believe that would fall in the category of “critical error” and “attention to detail would have avoided this error” as any good Missileer would say.”
