According to the National Indian Council on Aging they stated in 2019: #americanindians and #alaskanatives serve in the #armedforces at 5 times the national average. Natives have the highest per-capita involvement of any population to serve in the U.S. military.

They also have a higher concentration of women servicemembers than all other groups. Nearly 20% of American Indians and Alaska Natives servicemembers were women, while 15.6% of all other servicemembers were women.

Ryan's down to 77 miles to go, so it looks like there'll be a winner tomorrow morning. Pete and Richie are 21 and 22 miles back.
