“My court martial finally took place in February of 2022, after about two years and two months, and I received justice,” Dame said. “He was convicted.”“Older generation of soldiers that we have — predominantly in combat arms — aren’t used to working with females,” Dame said. “And so this newer generation is definitely opening up a lot more doors for us.”
