Short biography: Born into a luxurious life as the youngest daughter of a lord, she knew little hardship compared to other children of her age. Due to her parent's status in the kingdom, she received the best possible education there is, failing to disappoint in that regard. Unlike her siblings, she had shown little potential in the play of economics and politics, failing to follow suit as her elder siblings had. Instead, she was sent out to the military, as she had shown the robustness and leadership potential required for it.
Margalade took her first steps into a long military life through a decorated military school. Graduating five years later with good, if not an outstanding academic record. Nothing less was to be expected of her from her parents. in 810 A.S , she set a path to Stratford Royal Airforce Academy, where she underwent further extensive training. Her training ranged from literally lectures and simulations, to live training exercises. Despite being very similar, the live exercises were much more anxiety-inducing and frightening for her. Her first time piloting a training aircraft had been nearly a disaster, almost blacking out during the training session. Her practical performance hadn't been as successful as her theoretical grades. It did take her a while to get accommodated. She had considerable love and admiration for the Queen and the royal family, often carrying out a digital photo of the Queen on her body, as well as her assigned aircraft.
Her flight troubles were not the only obstacle she came across, she had issues indulging with her colleagues, fellow trainees, and officers in the Air Force. Believing that she was a level ahead of them, only because she is a daughter of a lord. However, soon she found out that meant nothing the hard way, as she started a fight with another female trainee. Despite looking mean and all tough and mighty, she grew more friendly and caring as the time went by.
She walked once again through the gates of the academy, this time, however, as a graduate and a flight officer. She was shortly assigned to London Airbase where she had served superbly for two years. Terrorism activities spiraled on the surface of Planet Cambridge, Flight Lieutenant Margalade was reassigned to Wittering Airbase to assist in the efforts to eradicate the insurgency movement, carrying out bombing runs on hostile hideouts.
With Kusari forces breaking through to Leeds, and a possible planetary invasion approaching. Margalade was once again transferred to the 85 protection squadron on Lancaster Airbase, responsible for the defense of the airbase and the surrounding atmospheric and planetary sector. However, to everyone's surprise, things got much more complicated as the new unknown enemy entered the arena. The Gallic war machine invaded Leeds after demolishing the Kusarian fleets, leaving the Bretonian defensive forces unknowing of the true capacity of this new enemy.
To Flight Lieutenant Margalade, all enemies were the same. She was well prepared for anything that would come her way - or so she thought. The situation went chaotic as soon as the planetary invasion started. Communication went haywire, and it proved to be difficult to reach out to various parts of the defensive forces and to identify blue from red. Over a year of continuous ravaging battles and onslaught were nothing like the training and simulations she underwent.
She took on various roles through the war on Leeds; she flew air defense duty on various occasions, as well as heavy life duty as she piloted the Merlin" K3W-32PD Transport, lifting heavy vehicles, logistics, and transports throughout the field. She also provided close combat support to units on the ground. At the last stages of the invasion, her wing was providing close combat support to units on the ground. However, due to faulty information, the entire wing was shot down along with her aircraft beyond enemy territory, brief search and rescue operations found nothing but a burnt-to-crisp aircraft with a missing pilot.
Margalade was presumed M.I.A and imprisoned by the enemy for around 2 years, only to be found with a group of resistance insurgents that were in the dark until Operation Royal Flush, were Margalade was extracted out by allied forces. Margalade had suffered severe wounds after the crash, losing one of her lower limbs and severe burns on her back. She was admitted to Chelsea military hospital on Planet New London where she received proper treatment as well as a military-grade prosthetic limb. She underwent both physical and mental rehab for a total of two years after being medically discharged in 822 A.S.
Her undying love and loyalty for the Queen and the nation only pushed her far more, looking for a bigger opportunity to serve with the Armed Forces.

Letter of Recommendation Wrote:Squadron Leader Margalade definitely got on my good side of things, which is not something very common. She did things as she was told to and performed as expected. She had some trouble socializing with her squadron mates, but nothing too serious. She also tends to get easily frustrated under pressure and extreme stress. But does she get the job done? Yes, she does. ~ Wing Commander James Stockley
