There are some unfamiliar faces running around Sand Hill as of Tuesday — female faces. The Army’s infantry school at Fort Benning, Georgia, welcomed its first class of 11X basic trainees this week, more than a year after the Defense Department lifted the ban on women serving in combat occupational specialties. The first class to include women in infantry basic training is due to graduate on May 19, according to the release.
