Anderson, 20, said it was a "big eye-opener" when a supervisor told her she was the first woman to complete the course. She will work alongside men, clearing minefields, buildings bridges under fire or destroying structures to block the enemy's advance.
"It's time to step up and not hide in the shadow's," she said.
In civilian life she wants to become an equine veterinarian.
"The opportunity to actually go overseas and fight for what we're suppose to in the Army, it would be an honor, it would be something I'd really look forward to," Anderson said.
I applaud her.
