Mandy's story is inspiring to all who encounter adversity to reach their goals -- which really is all of us!With some of the most memorable romantic scenes, An Officer And A Gentleman is a classic movie that just keeps on giving... While I am an aviation enthusiast, this is not just for those who love aircraft! I think anyone (especially women) could appreciate her struggle and her persistence. It is inspiring.
