The Air Force's first female soldier was born.

According to the Air Force 19th Fighter Wing on the 6th, the soldier of the unit, Jung Jeong-sook (45), was promoted to the last day.

In April 1995, Jung Won, who was appointed as the 137th candidate for the Women's Lieutenant Army, served as the Air Force in March 2000 as a training officer in the Air Force and Air Force Training Institute's training team.

In 2003, he moved to the 19th Fighter Wing and worked as a member of the Exploration and Protection Group of the National Anti-Fire Institute.

Since January of last year, Jung has served as the head of the unit's chemical and biological support team and the head of the exploration team.

Recognized for his ability to handle business and affinity, he received the Commendation of the 19th Combat Flight Commander in 2008, and was promoted to yarn after 25 years in office, earning the title of the Air Force's first female soldier.

"I feel the heavy responsibility of being the highest rank as an vice-governor and getting the title of the first female soldier," said Jung.
