Taking over a frontline combat unit in the Western sector is Group Captain Shaliza Dhami, shattering the glass ceiling.
A woman has been given command of a frontline combat unit in the IAF’s history – a missile squadron in the Western sector.
For the first time, the Army started assigning women officers to command roles outside of medicine earlier this month. About 50 of them will head units in operational areas, including forward. Both Northern and Eastern Commands will do this.
Group Captain Dhami was commissioned as a helicopter pilot in 2003 and has over 2,800 hours under his belt. Flight Commander of a Helicopter Unit in the Western Sector, she’s a qualified flying instructor.
In the IAF, a Group Captain is like a Colonel.
Having been commended twice by the Air Officer Commanding-in-Chief, the officer is currently posted to a frontline command headquarters’ operations branch.
