Well, she is Germany´s first female fighter jet pilot. As you may know, Germany has just recently started to include women as fighting members in the army ("Bundeswehr") and now german air force has its first woman pilot. You can read about her ( in german)at http://www.luftwaffe.de/portal/a/luftwaffe/kcxml/04_Sj9SPykssy0xPLMnMz0vM0Y_QjzKLN48PMALJgFmG-pFQkaCUVH1vfV-P_NxU_QD9gtyIckdHRUUAnQw9rg!!/delta/base64xml/L2dJQSEvUUt3QS80SVVFLzZfN1 9QMg!!?yw_contentURL=%2F01DB060000000001%2FW26TYBMY517INFODE%2Fcontent.jsp

When she was younger she wanted to become an astronaut , and maybe one day she will. Good news: she signs through the mail. My request was the first she got,she replied in her letter,so it´s kind of a "virgin" autograph. Due to our policy I may not publish full address, but as you can read in the article mentioned above, she is in training at Sheppard AFB at present and will be in Holloman soon.
Have a good time!
