Lt. Gen. Jody Daniels will become the first woman to lead the Army Reserve in its history. Daniels is an intelligence officer and computer scientist.
WASHINGTON – Her promotion to lieutenant general confirmed, Jody Daniels has been cleared to take command of the Army Reserve, the first woman to do so in its 112-year history.
Barriers in the military for women, who make up about 16% of the active-duty force, have been coming down. In 2015, women became eligible to serve in combat roles. Last year, Maria Barrett and Paula Lodi became the first sisters in Army history to reach the rank of general. About one in five Army Reserve soldiers are women, the highest of any military component, said Mark Cancian, a senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a nonpartisan think tank in Washington. As opportunity expands, more women will achieve senior rank.
"She's a terrific officer," Quantock said."Jody is smart, experienced, approachable and is a gifted leader. Really happy to see her break another glass ceiling as the Chief of the Army Reserve. She'll be fantastic." "He was taking everything in and assimilating and synthesizing it," Daniels said."And then thinking about how he should respond. And I hope that I've taken on some of that."
Her husband, John McCarthy, 57, is a retired Army colonel who also specialized in intelligence. The two met while running with a group and have been married more than seven years.
