Army 2nd Lt. Lindsey Jefferies, a Black Hawk helicopter pilot with C Company, 1st Battalion, 131st Aviation, 449th Theater Aviation Brigade, stands on her assigned helicopter, in Fort Rucker, Ala., in October 2013. Jefferies, who is the first female, African-American helicopter pilot in the North Carolina National Guard, achieved her goals through hard work and dedication. “Initially becoming a pilot was an idea that seemed so far out of reach and unattainable,” said Jefferies. “But, after praying, putting my faith in God and seeking guidance from mentors, I made the decision to go for it, a decision forever cherished.” (Army National Guard Photo by Chief Warrant Officer 2 Leon Hammett, 1-131st Aviation Battalion, North Carolina National Guard/Released)
