Fairfax, Virginia - (L-R) Capt. Vanessa Rodriguez, Maj. Michele Spangler, Lt. Col. Christina Perronie, Capt. Katie Kerr and Capt. Anabel Montano-Vargas, all assigned to the Fairfax-based 124th Cyber Protection Battalion, 91st Cyber Brigade, comprised the first known all-female staff within the Virginia Army National Guard.
