ANN DUNWOODY becomes first woman ever promoted to four star general.

The female descendant of a long line of US military officers was promoted to four star general Thursday, the first woman ever to reach the top rung of the US military.
Ann Dunwoody accepted the promotion and command of the army's materiel command with humor and humility at a Pentagon ceremony so packed with well wishers that three star generals were standing in the aisles.
"When people ask me, Ann, did you ever think you were going to be a general officer, say nothing about a four-star, I say not in my wildest dreams," she said.
"There is no one more surprised than I, except, of course, my husband.
And you know what they say, behind every successful woman there's an astonished man."
