ORLANDO, Fla. — When asked what she planned to do after being crowned Miss America at Disney World on Sunday night, Air Force 2nd Lt. Madison Marsh shouted through a preternaturally wide smile made of glistening lips and ivory white teeth, “I’m going to fly an F-16 and bomb the shit out of the enemies of America, worldwide!”
Marsh is a recent Air Force Academy graduate who represented Colorado in the Miss America contest. She’s also one of the few active-duty second lieutenants with a kick-ass Wikipedia bio.
“CEO Robin Fleming proposed a ‘50% RIF’ cage match,” Marsh told an Air Force News reporter regarding rumored concerns from pageant officials about the militarization of beauty contests. “Sgt. Munson liked the idea because she’s trained in combatives. I liked the idea because the referee was a LOAC expert.”
