Le Groupement de Commandos de Montagne au Mali
Depuis la mi-janvier [2019] un détachement du Groupement de Commandos de Montagne (GCM) s’est installé à Gao, au nord du Mali, dans le cadre de l’opération Barkhane, complètement intégré au sein du Groupement Tactique Désert Aérocombat (GTD-A). Les commandos grâce à cette configuration opérationnelle ont déjà fait plusieurs fois leurs preuves sur le terrain, grâce à la rapidité d’intervention des hélicoptères de manœuvre combinée à la polyvalence des équipiers.
Sa mission principale consiste à faire pression sur les groupes armés terroristes.

The aircraft carriers Charles de Gaulle and John C. Stennis (CVN 74) conducted a cross deck exercise between sailors to increase interoperability between two allied nations. The John C. Stennis Carrier Strike Group is deployed to the U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations in support of naval operations to ensure maritime stability and security in the Central Region, connecting the Mediterranean and the Pacific through the western Indian Ocean and three strategic choke points.

She is an officer ! Please, have a little respect for her ! :)

And for your information woman are able to join the FFL since 2000 but cannot be send in combat zone or serve in combat unit (just because they can't train with men - the Genral commanding the FFL said it will be a cultural shock for a lot of FFL volunteers and didn't want her to be in trouble). There is a bunch of women in the FFL (NCO and Officier) in administrative or medical staff task (so the men can go and fight).

The only woman who serve in the FFL in combat operation was Susan Travers during the WW2 and Indochina war (she wrote a book in 2000:
Tomorrow to Be Brave: A Memoir of the Only Woman Ever to Serve in the French Foreign Legion.)
