- Brigadier General Paula Lodi of the U.S. Army, Major General Maria Barret of the U.S. Army, Lt. General Jacqueline Van Ovost of the U.S. Air Force, and Retired four-star Admiral Michelle Howard of the U.S. Navy sit down with CNBC's Scott Wapner to discuss their service, and what they would say to other women aspiring to join the U.S. military.
Admiral Howard is real life goals! I was so proud of her as a woman in the Navy.
I served with then Major Paula Lodi in Iraq in 2003-04. She was a superb leader. She demonstrated outstanding technical skills and a very professional demeanor. I could clearly see her as a General officer early in her career.
That's great to see and even tho I oppose the wars appreciate your service 👏🏽👏🏽💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
@@deneshbhaskar3944 you don't belong in the military.
The lady in the air force is a lieutenant general not a lieutenant please get it right.
When someone reaches the rank of Lieutenant General, their rank is Lieutenant General but they are addressed as Liententant. Same thing in the navy, Lieutenant Junior Grade and Lieutenant Commanders are both addressed as Lieutenants.
@@calebcorso9810 no they are not a general of any grade is addressed as general.

Those ladies who are to have 4 star in their military uniform is extraordinary and awesome leaders in the US . I can't imagine what tough and important responsibilities for their service to lot of people who have big roles to protecting security and peace in the world. Good luck with your job 😊
Currently serving under Gen. Van Ovost who is now USTRANSCOM Commander. She’s the highest ranking military woman in the world now.
You forgot the General after the rank Lieutenant for Lt. Gen
How cool is that? My highest respect to these people!
These women are extraordinary! Kudos to these amazing women!
Thanks Jim very much for your supporting comment. You can message or chat me on my private email address:- genlorirobinson69@gmail.com
God bless them all.❤️🙏🏾
Outstanding!!!!! Thanks for your service
How can you not love women like this ? 101% respect to these babes of the iron hammer
I've often found that when it comes to giving great advice and perspective nobody does it better than U.S. military leaders.
I agree and it's why, in my opinion, that our President needs to have served in the military. They not only know how to lead but before they could lead they learned how to follow and listen.
21 years of service to make Lt.Gen Van Ovost a three star general seems very quick to make that kind of rank .
I think that’s a typo. She commissioned in 1988.
@@christopherwilliams6762 she Commissioned?.....wtf I didn't know she was a ship 😂
All must have beauty, brain and physical ability to reach present rank in US military.
Wow you wow just love your spirit and god bless you professionals
Having the Rank of General sounds like one of the most coolest things I've heard
And during war, there's a 5-star general in each branch so imagine being called General of the Armies
They work 80 hr weeks....weekends too....no overtime. Sounds cool but really just a stressful ass job.
@@ScottCugno Yeah, I could imagine it
@@duback1209 General of the armies is a six-star general, the 5-star general is general of the army. the 4 star general is just general.
that is true
Bless
Blessings
God bless those women they work hard to get where they're at in a man's world we have to give them Kudos great job 4 generals women God bless you and I hope you bring a lot more with you Godspeed
I can only imagine what these ladies went through to get where they are today. God bless the four of you and we want to see more women leaders in charge. Thank you for your outstanding service.
WOW!!! So awesome lot of power sitting at that table
respect to you woman love yall
Blessings blessings
The only "true" 4 star full general is the retired admiral Howard...all the others are sub generals and subordinate to her in rank....which is why she is seated first. The 3 star lt general should be next to her ...follow ed by the 2 star major general and the 1 star brigadier last.

Yes that's the chain of command. I know this because I'm a Navy Vietnam veteran and war on terrorism veteran.
I remember Admiral Howard I was getting ready to be discharged after serving 10 yrs active duty and 4 Reserve duty. God Bless ladies always. Bravo
ZULU. (Job well done)
Thank you for the explanation. So much respect for her and all the others.
Hi 1997. Nozir Ahmah ??????
Very inspiring
Very impressive and patriotic leadership. I can sleep at night, knowing these and other professionals have the watch. Salute 🇺🇸
Proud of them canrt be easy mans world
Affirmative action!
What are these women doing for the defence of Melbourne or America?
How many of those ribbons are for combat roles on the font line fighting ??
Zero!
At least The British Military you earn your ribbons for actually being in a combat zone !! And not for getting dressed !!
Where's General Maryanne Miller
Retired
and Nadja West
Now, all the other branches uniforms look like the Navy uniform.
Pls help philippine for chenisse people look what can do the commonist chenise evel in the philippine.
Mrs. Howard looks different from the last time I saw her
If only politics were a merit based system .
Women..what Women ....competence is ALL that matters. And they all look like they have it.
.
No CIB's or V's.
Admiral Howard was in charge of the task force that took out the Somalian pirates that hijacked the civilian commercial ship.
I think we have to 3 to 4 times the number of generals then we had in WWII .
That's a good point. Do you have any explanations? Has the job become a whole lot more technical & complex? Have we realized being ready at all times instead of having to promote field officers in a big damn hurry like Ike, going from Lt Col to 5-stars in just a few years? Do we have commitments all over the world to assist allies & suppress problem areas instead of allowing them to blow up & even come in-country again? Are we retiring officers at a reasonable age so we don't have a bunch of feeble old leaders in a crisis? (I'm an old man so I get to say stuff like that without even smiling) As long as there's a real need for a well-trained & diversely experienced officer corps, I say yes, we're doing a good job of ensuring we are ready & able anywhere, anytime. These four general & flag officers represent the best & brightest personnel available for the job.
Is the Admiral retired? Why is she not in uniform? Sorry. I see now she is retired.
She was retired at the time of this interview, so you would no longer where your uniform.
I want all the Women to join up. As soon as possible. We Men will hold up the Home front, good luck. Vietnam Vet USN

More ribbons than Audie Murphy. They must have lots of combat.
No where near the same.
yeah i find it laughable that soldiers/sailors/airmen today have as much if not more ribbons/medals than chesty puller or audie murphy like wtf. a fresh lieutenant now has more ribbons/medals than dwight eisenhower for pete sakes.
When an NSF does the interview.
I have my Certificates
God bless our military, we love them so much 🙏🏾🙏🏾 ma god keep them safe 💖💖🥰

Quite interesting, you do not see any black people reaching at the very top in military. There are very little percentage of black women or men to become officers in the Army. It's very sad.
I noticed the same thing . It’s great we made a milestone with women in the military finally , but now we need to think about women of color . Admiral Michelle Howard was black but 1/4 is not enough. It’s not just black women , Asian , south Asian , Hispanic as well.
Colin Powell is a 4 star General and later served as Secretary of State. Russell Honore is a 3 star General. Both of them are black men.
Well, what I want to know, after all this time and all the shouting about equality, which I'm for if somebody can meet the standards without lowering standards, why aren't females required to register for the draft when they turn 18 like males are?
They should have to register for the draft and face the same sanctions if they don't, like not being able to get federal student loans Etc.
I mean you have to put the best out there , plus we cant have all our babymakers dying .
The short answer, though most people don't like to hear it, is males are expendable and females are not.. that's the way it has always been in every civilization throughout human history and how it will remain. Mostly comes down to biological reasons, as pupy said you cant have your babymakers dying.
Bob Cobb sounds harsh but there’s some truth in it. So why all the whining
The reality is that the draft requirement is obsolete. If the USA is fighting wars that require a draft, our leaders have really messed up.
@@roberthudson1959 Well, there is a societal benefit to it to. It promotes national cohesion and identity as well as induces maturity and (self)discipline, while removing senses of entitlement.
Interesting news in 2024. 25 years of military service as of 2024.

Essentially a structured caste system..by which attaching insignia or adornment to a uniform makes one person better than another...
Sounds like you are upset and jealous there.
@@vburd62 Had to live it for three years...I think it gave me an attitude....Then when I get out, actually still breathing,, somebody in the army was laboring under the delusion they were going to put me in the active reserve....they were high...
Lodi hooked up with and married her CSM as a 2nd It. (Fraternization) Used his position to elevate herself then he retired and she was groomed.
Any evidence of that? or just word of mouth?
I served in Iraq with then Major Lodi. She was an absolutely superb leader. She demonstrated outstanding technical skills. I could clearly see her as a General Officer early in her career.
@@scottwest1791 I can believe that
All busenisse for pilipino is.lost becuase of evel big time chenise.
WOW! Those medals, those future tax-payer funded pensions, and those haircuts, all in one room. Wow.
Thank you ladies for protecting us from um, um, aaah,.... bad people? um, um, ...I think!
And thank ladies for your um, um, ... aaah, service? Um, um,.. I guess?
a lot of medals and ribbons post korea are pretty much meaningless. if you don't have a MOH, DSC, silver star, or a bonze star, legion of merits or distinguished service medals... it don't really matter much. they call them fluff medals/ribbons.
Conservatives would say CNBC is “woke”
Another buzzword they can barely articulate
I'm not allah the merciful
how come the usa has lost every war since 1945?
who else but the gov't would hire these low performers?
There shouldn't be any female generals they're making our military a laughing stock.
Feminism and the radical democrats destroyed the US military. These women are all affirmative action candidates who never held a combat command in battle but sat behind a desk getting participation trophy after participation trophy. Sad!
Generals lead armies.....not sit behind a desk and yell commands at people.....the times of General Patton and oberstfuhrer Rommel have long gone....The generals today are all laughing stocks.
Last war they won was in 1991.
yeah how come?
