On Friday, we reported on Madison Marsh, the Air Force pilot who was the first active-duty service member to compete for the Miss America crown.
Last night, she won.

The new Miss America graduated from the Air Force Academy last year just days after she clinched Miss Colorado. She is also studying at the Harvard Kennedy School in hopes of receiving a Master’s degree in public policy.
Marsh, an Arkansas native, had to soar through three nights of preliminary competitions before the field was reduced to only 11 contestants. That handful then faced off in four categories, including a discussion round and evening gown presentation before a winner was picked, CNN reported.
The biggest congratulations to Marsh.
She won!!! https://t.co/8jKdWqwyf7

Miss America 2024 is a graduate of your United States Air Force Academy and will start pilot training upon completion of her postgraduate studies at Harvard. So as you can see, a total slacker 🤣 ✈️ 🇺🇸 https://t.co/pqFlARUirt
A total slacker. Not.
While I have the utmost respect and love for all the other branches of the military, this is epic.

GO Air Force! https://t.co/0FYLzJ321z
Very epic.
Wow, are the guys at the squadron going to bust her chops every day. https://t.co/uZ8h0Bokni

We doubt it, but if they do, she can handle it.
She's a Fort Smith, AR native...and probably a future President. This woman is AMAZING. https://t.co/5lzmC5wI5i

She'd be a powerhouse in politics.
