Ah! I vaguely remember her at The Towers, in the 90s! So she must have done bloody well to be:
in charge of all RAF transport and refueling (Sp - see me!) assets worldwide at the time of 9/11 and was subsequently awarded the MBE for her Service during this period.
Seems she was an acting sqn ldr in Sep 2001
