    Danae Dostie, a specialist with the Maine Army National Guard 488th Military Police Company makes her mixed martial arts debut against the youngest MMA fighter in New England Fights history at Aura nightclub in Portland, November 3rd in an amateur bantamweight (135-pound) contest against Jayda Bailey. MMA is a full-contact, combat sport that allows striking and grappling, both standing and on the ground, using techniques from other combat sports and martial arts.
    Dostie had just three months of training under her belt going into her first fight, but the rookie felt confident and ready.
    "It takes a lot of discipline and willpower to train to be a fighter," said Dostie. "Discipline is what a soldier should be about. This is helping me become the best soldier I can be. It is also training me to stay in shape an be able to be more equipped to fight for this country when i am needed."
