After flying Apaches, she needed a new challenge - Harvard Gazette
Briefly

Lindsey Chrismon, a trailblazer from West Point, became the first woman to fly the AH-6 Little Bird helicopter in Army history and served in elite military units, including the one famous for the Osama bin Laden raid. High-achieving from the start, she set her sights on Harvard Business School years ago, showcasing her ambition and determination. After nearly a decade of flying elite helicopters, she pursued a new venture, demonstrating an ongoing desire to achieve and evolve in her career.
Every single day was actually pretty great. It didn't feel like work in that regard, but I was ready for a new venture.
I actually wrote in my West Point yearbook that I wanted to go to Harvard Business School 10 years ago.
I remember sitting in my room and an Apache helicopter came down and landed on the parade field, right outside.
It’s the same unit that flew the SEALs into the Osama bin Laden raid; it’s the most elite helicopter force on the planet, honestly.
