Army Brig. Gen. Laura McHugh Deputy Adjutant General-Army, addresses a question during the Pennsylvania National Guard’s Women’s History Month Celebration at the Keystone Conference Center here March 23. “I personally believe it’s just a matter of time,” McHugh said in regard to numbers of females in senior enlisted leadership roles. “You can look back just about three, three-and-a-half years ago and you didn’t see a female sergeant major. Now, I can name them on both hands, so it’s just a matter of time.”
