520    "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 U.S. 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 long
       -standing record of doing so with honor. In Shoot Like a 
       Girl, MJ takes the reader on a dramatic journey through 
       her military career: a 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."--Page 4 of
