BenRG:
The issue is that Faye simply didn't imagine that she needed to ask someone to watch Sam whilst she was not doing so. That's a mistake that I doubt that she'll make again, at least not for a long time.

That is, of course, the main point, My (admittedly subsidiary) point is that the presence of Bubbles should have reduced the likelihood of Faye making that mistake.

She was 14 about 600 comics ago so she may be 15 now.

She does often seem younger than that to me too, but I'm not around teenagers very often so I may not have a good sense of how mature most 14- or 15-year-olds are.  And of course there's a lot of individual variation.

TheEvilDog:
I was talking more about the post before mine saying its a training experience, as in Sam being too young to have that kind of training experience. In fact most apprenticeships that work with such tools require the apprentice to be at least 16.

--- End quote ---

Senior NCO, at least. If an officer, she was an NCO before going to Officer Candidate School. There is a certain style to the leadership of people with practical experience at the lower levels that butterbars and even Captains rarely have.
