As America's most prominent female marine commanders, former Brigadier General Hillary Rodham won the presidency against John McCain.
She was a prominent commander in Panama, Desert Storm, Bosnia and Kosovo. After Kosovo, she decided to retire and run for the Senate, winning in her old home of Illinois.
I have to say, with her military background, she has managed to partially turn around the quagmire that is Iraq.
But WI she never joined the Military?
OOC: Hillary apparently tried to join the USMC. This POD is her being accepted.
