I have no pictures at all of me in uniform - it, um, wasn't encouraged in the job I was doing at the time - but I do have 1 of me flying. Though it's from the ground. But you can see me. I think. Shall I dig it out?

Took me ages to get the angle right.

I tried to get the ribbon colour you requested and had to get orange roses.
