Madison Marsh, a United States Air Force officer who recently graduated from the Air Force Academy in Colorado, won the Miss Colorado pageant in 2023, and is a master’s student at the Harvard Kennedy School’s public policy program, just became Miss America. She was crowned 2024’s Miss America on Sunday, January 14th.
Marsh, before being crowned Miss America, spoke to Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends Weekend” about her life and career. Speaking about what separated her from the pack, she said, “I started flying around 15, that’s whenever I kind of fell in love with the Air Force Academy and the idea of serving. And so I walk through what that flight looks like and some of the things that went wrong and how they relate to me today as a leader and an officer, and kind of how that goes into pageantry as well.”
She also tried to answer the “what is a woman” question, telling the hosts, “You know, serving to me – being a woman in the military is all what you make of it. And for me that’s been being able to do both – that means representing my mom who I lost to pancreatic cancer and living through her life, because I get to live even though she doesn’t.” VIDEO BELOW:
