00:07.140 --> 00:08.050
Yeah , right .

00:12.240 --> 00:14.296
My name is corporal Elizabeth Nipper

00:14.296 --> 00:17.090
and I am a advisor at molly Coy in

00:17.100 --> 00:19.520
Kabul Military Training Center . Mall

00:19.520 --> 00:21.631
Light is the officer candidate school

00:21.631 --> 00:23.890
for female afghans joining the Afghan

00:23.890 --> 00:26.720
National Army Basic Training boot camp

00:26.720 --> 00:29.270
and job training for the females who

00:29.270 --> 00:31.492
will become officers in the A . N . A .

00:31.540 --> 00:33.484
Today . They are getting ready for

00:33.484 --> 00:35.651
their graduation that is tomorrow . So

00:35.651 --> 00:37.873
they're trying on various uniform items

00:37.873 --> 00:39.651
and they will have a graduation

00:39.651 --> 00:41.929
practice this afternoon for this class .

00:41.929 --> 00:44.262
It's important because it's a milestone .

00:44.262 --> 00:46.207
Afghanistan normally doesn't allow

00:46.207 --> 00:48.640
women in roles of leadership or any

00:48.640 --> 00:50.807
sort of power whatsoever and this is a

00:50.807 --> 00:53.080
big step for their country . If I can

00:53.080 --> 00:55.230
help one of the females here , the

00:55.230 --> 00:57.286
instructor student then that will be

00:57.286 --> 01:01.060
worth it .
