It is a massive first for the U.S. Army: two women have completed the ultra-brutal Army Ranger School and have earned the elite Ranger label.

In a graduation ceremony on Friday, they received a black-and-gold Ranger tab as the first females to accomplish this feat, according to a Washington Post report.

Their names are 1st Lt. Shaye Haver of Copperas Cove in Texas and Capt. Kristen Griest of Orange in Connecticut. They graduated along with 94 male soldiers in the ceremony.

To get there, they had to finish a nine-week program that tested their very limits, and are one of the first beneficiaries of the Pentagon’s move to open up all combat positions to women as long as they can meet military standards.

There’s still a long way to go before women can join tradically all-male combat units, like the 75th Ranger Regiment. That means even though Haver and Griest are now qualified to be Rangers, they can’t join the elite regiment because of their gender. However, officials have indicated that Special Operations units will probably be opened up to women at some point in the future.

Griest, who is 26, has worked as a military police officer on her tour in Afghanistan, while 25-year-old Haver pilots Apache helicopters. They both graduated from West Point, and were the only two out of 19 to complete the Ranger course.

Leadership is still deciding whether all Army positions should be open to women. Infantry is currently one of the only areas not already open to women, along with armor and some artillery positions in addition to the Special Operations forces. Defense Secretary Ashton Carter said this week that he will decide by December whether he would invoke any exceptions to keep some positions closed to women.
