First Lt. Gabrielle A. White makes history as the first woman to complete the U.S. Army’s Best Ranger Competition.

At 25, she was the only woman in the competition, and alongside her partner, Capt. Seth Deltenre, they placed in the top 15.

A Black woman made history as the first female to complete the U.S. Army’s grueling three-day Best Ranger Competition.

First Lt. Gabrielle A. White and her teammate, Capt. Seth Deltenre, were among 52 teams in the annual three-day Best Ranger Competition, held from April 11 to 13 at Camp Roger, Fort Benning, Georgia, according to People.

At 25, White, a West Point graduate, was the only woman in the competition, and she and Deltenre secured 14th place.

The competition’s website noted that this year marked its 41st edition, with the goal of identifying “the best two-man team from across the entire U.S. Armed Forces.”

When Dick Leandri founded the competition, it was to honor Lieutenant General (R) David E. Grange, Jr., and determine the best two-man “buddy” team in the Ranger Department at Fort Benning. Today, it identifies the top two-man team across the entire U.S. Armed Forces. With White’s achievement, perhaps the competition will no longer be seen as exclusively a two-man team event.

The competition featured events such as combat water survival, a bayonet obstacle course, ballistic breaching, helocasting, a rope bridge, and military knot tying.
