  • Summary

  • In this episode of Dog Tag Diaries, we sit down with Eileen Bjorkman, a remarkable woman who came of age during a transformative time in American history—the late 1960s and early 1970s. With a natural talent for math and science and a love for sports, she was anything but typical in an era when women were just starting to gain more opportunities, yet still faced significant discrimination. Her journey took her from a computer programming job to a groundbreaking career in the Air Force, where she became a flight test engineer, overcoming the limitations placed on women in the military at the time.
