BISMARCK, N.D. — An Air Force officer who cited his religious beliefs in his refusal to working with women in underground missile launch centers is getting a new job at another base.
1st Lt. Ryan Berry, 26, who is stationed at Minot Air Force Base, said his strong Roman Catholic beliefs prevented him from being able to share such close quarters with a woman who is not his wife.
Berry will become an acquisitions officer at Hanscom Air Force Base in Massachusetts after three weeks of training in Texas.
