The Minuteman Minute: Captain Norma Parsons-Erb
From the National Guard Association of the United States website
At the National Guard Memorial Museum, our artifacts tell the stories of America’s citizen soldiers. Get a glimpse of the Guard’s history as our Museum Director Anne Armstrong shares some of these artifacts.
In 1956, Captain Norma Parsons-Erb became the first woman in the Air National Guard. She was also the first female member of the National Guard Association of the United States. Her uniform represents decades of women in military service to their states, territories, and the District of Columbia.
