"I mean if you look around they are contributing equally, and how we could have started where we did and how we could be so biased against women and their leadership roles, it is pretty amazing to me that we have come so far."
Script:
RECENTLY AIRMEN FROM THE TWENTIETH FIGHTER WING AND US AFCENT CAME TOGETHER WITH SOLDIERS FROM THIRD ARMY TO CELEBRATE WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH HERE AT SHAW AIR FORCE BASE. WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH IN THE UNITED STATES TRACES ITS ROOTS BACK TO THE FIRST INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY CELEBRATED IN 1911. IN NINETEEN EIGHTY SEVEN CONGRESS EXPANDED THE CELEBRATION FROM ONE WEEK TO THE ENTIRE MONTH OF MARCH. THIS YEAR THE MEMBERS OF TEAM SHAW CELEBRATED WITH A LUNCHEON INCLUDING A SPEECH FROM A SPECIAL GUEST.
Quote: Gov Haley
"you know, when you go through life you're faced with challenges and it is not so much the challenges that you are faced with, it's how you deal with those challenges and it's how people respond to how you deal with those challenges that matters."
Script :
IN 2010, GOVERNOR HALEY WAS ELECTED GOVERNOR OF SOUTH CAROLINA MAKING HER THE FIRST FEMALE GOVERNOR IN THE STATES HISTORY AS WELL AS THE YOUNGEST GOVERNOR IN THE COUNTRY. DURING HER SPEECH THE GOVERNOR TALKED ABOUT SOME OF THE CHALLENGES THAT SHE HAS FACED IN HER LIFE AND HOW OVERCOMING THOSE CHALLENGES HAS MADE HER A BETTER PERSON AND A BETTER LEADER. SHE ALSO TALKED ABOUT WHAT WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH MEANS TO HER.
Quote: Gov Haley
"And its not we do, its how we do it, its what we take away from it and thats really what this is, when we talk about women's history month we're talking about a lot of women that showed a lot of courage, they pushed through something."
AFTER HER SPEECH COL HALL PRESENTED THE GOVERNOR WITH A BLANKET AS A THANK YOU FROM ALL OF THE MEMBERS OF TEAM SHAW. SRA CHRIS BEAVER, SHAW AIR FORCE BASE, SOUTH CAROLINA.
