00:00.000 --> 00:03.000
Women's history has historically been

00:03.010 --> 00:04.330
underrepresented .

00:07.170 --> 00:09.560
There's just not as much out there for

00:09.560 --> 00:12.490
girls and women to research and look

00:12.490 --> 00:14.712
into . It's important that we have that

00:14.712 --> 00:17.140
representation because historically ,

00:17.140 --> 00:19.510
there has been less , you know , it's

00:19.510 --> 00:21.720
important for us to be seen and to be

00:21.720 --> 00:24.090
heard , the young girls who will follow

00:24.090 --> 00:26.034
in our footsteps know that this is

00:26.034 --> 00:28.280
possible and they have a place in this

00:28.280 --> 00:31.450
profession , I think of my own command

00:31.450 --> 00:34.200
leadership . I'm so lucky in the

00:34.200 --> 00:36.800
Quantico Marine Corps band to have very

00:36.800 --> 00:39.430
strong female leaders . My officer in

00:39.430 --> 00:41.760
charge , my enlisted conductor ,

00:41.770 --> 00:44.660
they're exceptionally strong ,

00:44.670 --> 00:47.250
talented , incredible women .
