Simple. I was sent there to be SNavO whilst holding after Valley. They gave me an office on the far side of the airfield and several million maps, NOTAMS, files, secondary duties, etc. I wasn't really sure what I was supposed to do, but worked out that the NOTAMS were quite important so I used to send my dog over to Ops with the NOTAMS for the Nav Planning Room each morning while I tried to make sense of of all the other rubbish that came my way. When people wanted maps they came over to get them and she was the oly one they ever saw in the office; I think I was usually trying to sort out the Station Gliding Club for one of the Instructors or various other 'stuff'.

Anyway, no one ever saw much of me and it became the assumed truth that Jessica was the SNavO. Suited me.

She used to steal peoples cigarettes too.

Funny old time.
