She instantly fell in love with two things, first her assigned twin Cynthi (the feeling is very mutual) and the thrill and exilleration of fast aerospace fighters. She aced the flight simulators and other tests and was an natural for Aerospace Kommand. However she selected Fleet Operations in order to try to get a joint posting with Cynthia, though at this moment is a bit of a pie in the sky dream for two young Kaydettes in different branches.
Wendy Louise Travis: The honor graduate from Sally Ride she was selected for SAN and will attend training with Cynthia. Their relationship will be very close but not on the same level as Cynthia and Barbara.
Arlene Saunders and Angela Brooks: The other pair that makes up the party that includes Cynthia and Barbara while at Sally Ride.

Mademoiselle Kaydette Helen Tolliver: The young recent graduate who was posted to serve as Sorority Mentor (a officetette posting that does not exist outside of training units) for the next group of girls going through Salley ride.

Mademoiselle Lewtenette Francine Zepeda: She is a combat veteran and was in fact instrumental in liberating a prisoner of war encampment which included several of the survivors of the fallen Orion garrison. She is several years older than the average Lewtenette as she is a Pony Girl raised from the ranks. Her unit of Register is the the 63rd Mechanized Infantry Legion, which like the 21st Imperial Guards (elite infantry) formed the rear guard of Orion. Miss Francine was wounded early in that fight and evacuated off world which her actions there in part led to her battlefield promotion.
Mademoiselle Majourette Catherine Kelly Volkberg: The young daughter of Princesses Jennifer and Jessica Volkbeg she was in the same class as Miss Helen. As a scion of a royal house she was fast tracked and is serving in a field communications troop. Not the front line but definatly not a safe and cushy staff assignment one would expect from someone born with a platinum rattle in her crib. Then again the Volkbergs are not the sterotypical pampered royal family either.
Her Ladyship Equetassa S. Nicole Volkberg, centuria majora sanctamonia: Lady Nicole is the darling of the Empire. She was the rear guard commander of the Orion garrison (at the time she was a Kommandette) and although it fell, her stand cost the Corporate enemy several fold the loss to the Empire. She is not of Amazonian heritage but was adopted by Princess Jennifer. She is the holder of the Crystal Heart of Bravery, the highest decoration in the Empire (along the lines of the Victoria Cross more so the Medal of Honor). Severely wounded and forced to endure a prisoner of war camp (brothel) she was liberated and soon after her period of rehabilitation assigned as commander of a special operations unit and promoted to Lady Equetassa (Knight).
