Her Desire To Prove Them Wrong
“A lot of the Marines initially thought that I might not be able to keep up physically, or that I somehow wasn’t ‘as strong’ as them, so I made it my mission to prove them wrong,” she went on. As an administrative specialist posted in South Carolina, Ihrke got her start. She was committed to doing her best and proving all of her critics wrong. The world was her go-getter attitude oyster.

Ihrke made sure to do her best at work all the time and even accomplished something that most Marines don’t have!
