Last month I had the great honor of interviewing Maj. Gen. Jeannie Leavitt at the National Air and Space Museum. You can watch the full program here:
Leavitt was the first woman to become a combat fighter pilot for the U.S. Air Force and primarily flew the F-15E Strike Eagle. She has over 300 hours of combat time, held a number of high level command positions, and literally trained a superhero when she worked with Brie Larson for the film Captain Marvel.
It was wonderful to talk with her about her career and her experiences.
