Resumen del Editor
On June 29, 2009, Air National Guard major Mary Jennings "MJ" Hegar was shot down while on a medevac mission on her third tour in Afghanistan. Despite being wounded, she fought the enemy and saved the lives of her crew and their patients. But soon she would face a new battle: to give women who serve on the front lines the credit they deserve....
After being commissioned into the US Air Force, MJ Hegar was selected for pilot training by the Air National Guard, finished at the top of her class, then served three tours in Afghanistan flying combat search and rescue missions, culminating in a harrowing rescue attempt that would earn MJ the Purple Heart as well as the Distinguished Flying Cross with Valor Device.
But it was on American soil that Hegar would embark on her greatest challenge - to eliminate the military's Ground Combat Exclusion Policy, which kept female armed service members from officially serving in combat roles despite their longstanding record of doing so with honor.
In Shoot Like a Girl, MJ takes the listener on a dramatic journey through her military career: an inspiring, humorous, and thrilling true story of a brave, high-spirited, and unforgettable woman who has spent much of her life ready to sacrifice everything for her country, her fellow man, and her sense of justice.

Tim Kennedy has a problem; he only feels alive right before he’s about to die. Kennedy, a Green Beret, decorated Army sniper, and UFC headliner, has tackled a bull with his bare hands, jumped out of airplanes, dove to the depths of the ocean, and traveled the world hunting poachers, human traffickers, and the Taliban. But he’s also the same man who got kicked out of the police department, fire department, and as an EMT, before getting two women pregnant four days apart, and finally, been beaten up by his Special Forces colleagues.

A few years after his release from a North Vietnamese prisoner-of-war camp, in 1973, Colonel Joseph Kittinger retired from the Air Force. Restless and unchallenged, he turned to ballooning, a lifelong passion as well as a constant diversion for his imagination during his imprisonment. His primary goal was a solitary circumnavigation of the globe, and in its pursuit he set several ballooning distance records, including the first solo crossing of the Atlantic in 1984. But the aeronautical feats that first made him an American hero had occurred a quarter of a century earlier....

The first journalist to be embedded with an Air Force combat unit in the war on terrorism, Hirsh flew from Moody Air Force Base, Georgia, with the 71st Rescue Squadron to their expeditionary headquarters at a secret location in Central Asia. Unparalleled access to the pararescue jumpers - or PJs - as well as to the courageous men and women who fly them where they have to go, often under enemy fire, allowed Michael Hirsh to uncover incredible stories of courage.

Kandahar. The ancient desert crossroads and, as of fall of 2001, ground zero for the Taliban and al-Qa'ida in southern Afghanistan. In the northern part of the country, the US-supported Northern Alliance has made progress on the battlefield, but in the south, the country is still under the Taliban's bloody hold and al-Qa'ida continues to operate there. With no "Southern Alliance" for the US to support, a new strategy is needed if victory is to be achieved. Veteran CIA officer Duane Evans is dispatched to Pakistan to "get something going in the South." Foxtrot in Kandahar is his story.

Historia
Kandahar. The ancient desert crossroads and, as of fall of 2001, ground zero for the Taliban and al-Qa'ida in southern Afghanistan. In the northern part of the country, the US-supported Northern Alliance has made progress on the battlefield, but in the south, the country is still under the Taliban's bloody hold and al-Qa'ida continues to operate there. With no "Southern Alliance" for the US to support, a new strategy is needed if victory is to be achieved. Veteran CIA officer Duane Evans is dispatched to Pakistan to "get something going in the South." Foxtrot in Kandahar is his story.

SHOOT LIKE A GIRL
One Woman’s Dramatic Fight in Afghanistan and on the Homefront
Mary Jennings Hegar
MY RATING ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
PUBLISHER Penguin Berkley/Recorded Books
PUBLISHED March 7, 2017
A dramatic true story of one woman’s brave and selfless fight to serve her country and to improve opportunities for those women following in her footsteps.
SUMMARY
In 2009, Air National Guard Major Mary Jennings “MJ” Hegar was shot down by the Taliban while on a medevac mission on her third tour in Afghanistan. Despite being wounded in the arm and leg, she fought off the enemy and save the lives of her crew and their three patients.
Hegar had dreamed of being a pilot for most of her life, and was lucky enough to have an encouraging stepfather. After she was commissioned in the U.S. Air Force, Hegar was selected for pilot training by the Air National Guard, where she finished at the top of her class. She served three tours in Afghanistan flying hundreds of combat search and rescue missions culminating in the harrowing rescue that would earn Hegar the Purple Heart as well as the Distinguished Flying Cross with Valor. But on the home-front, Hegar would fight a great challenge as well. She sought to eliminate the Department of Defense Ground Combat Exclusion Policy, which kept women from serving in combat roles, despite their long standing record of doing so with honor. A lawsuit was filed by the ACLU with Hegar as a plaintiff arguing the unconstitutionality of the exclusion. That ban was lifted by then Secretary of Defense Leon Panneta and the Joint Chiefs of Staff in 2012.
REVIEW
Hold on tight for this gripping and enlightening biography. MJ Hegar followed her heart, and has done an astounding job at telling her story of her experiences. Her integrity and perseverance was front and center in her service to our country despite the many hurdles (discrimination) she had to overcome. She shares about her fight with the Taliban, the military and even the Pentagon. Her writing is engaging, and her rescue stories are breathtaking. Most importantly, is that the culmination of all of her experiences has lead her to a new mission where she has opened up opportunities for other women who choose to serve on the military. A true bluestocking woman! Thank you MJ Hegar for your service to this country and especially for making a difference for future generations of women.
“This is what I was made for. I felt it in my gut. In the last hour, I’d been shot by the Taliban, had my aircraft riddled with bullets, and landed hard in enemy territory. ‘I can do this. I am not scared.’ At that moment I wouldn’t have switched spots with anyone in the world, because I knew I was the best person for the job.”
-Mary Jennings Hegar

I read this because I was interested in finding out what it is like to be a woman in the military. This book was very well written, inspiring, and interesting. The narration was great as well. I definitely recommend.

Amazing true story of MJ Hegar
MJ is an inspiration not only to all fighter pilots, but to women everywhere with her warrior spirit. MJ continues her fight in running as a Texas Senator advocating for us all. I met her last year, and she is the real deal-down to earth, caring, and genuine.

Couldn’t stop listening
As an AF SNCO, female, and wife (mil to mil), I could relate and proud to have strong women working beside me. The journey hasn’t been easy and I’ve wanted to give up several times.

Interesting.look into pilot life
The story is very interesting although the writing is rather average. The author likes to say things like, "we were about to find out'.

GOD BLESS AMERICA
Didn't know anything about this pilot, the story or how the law changed. But, the title poppped up in a search result for another topic so thought I would roll the dice. Very happy I did. Riveting and inspiring.

I liked that MJ knew what she wanted to do and she didn't let anyone or anything stop her. Kudos for being the role model for others who desire to serve.
