NORTH LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — The Arkansas Air National Guard has its first female general.
The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reports that during a ceremony Saturday at Camp Robinson in North Little Rock, 55-year-old Tamhra Hutchins-Frye of Hot Springs Village was promoted to brigadier general.
Hutchins-Frye joined the Arkansas Air National Guard in 1984 and is now the director of joint staff. She has been deployed once — to Afghanistan in 2013 — and said she hopes for at least one more deployment and to get one more star on her uniform, making her a two-star general.
The first female brigadier general on the Army side of the Arkansas National Guard is Gen. Patricia Anslow, who received her promotion in 2012.

Not to be mean but she looks to be overweight (assuming that's her in the pic).Just got me thinking of the GO from NJ and his situation.

I don't think she looks big at all. There are anatomical differences that most men don't have to deal with and you can't really fault her for that.

Thanks for letting us know SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL that Col Tamhra Hutchins-Frye was promoted to brigadier general. Many years ago I went to Camp Robinson in 2005 after I demobilized and was supporting the Army National Guard Headquarters.
