Her first and last mentions, in ''[[House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)]]'' and ''[[Field Manual: Capellan Confederation]]'', clarify that she was always a Confederation or Compact Officer. Beginning with ''[[20 Year Update]]'', she was listed as a General and the "AFFC Liaison" under the St. Ives Compact, a rank that exists in neither the SIMC nor AFFC. In several novels she is explicitly described as an AFFC officer who had pro-Victor leanings and would even disobey orders from Archon-Princess Katherine Steiner-Davion to abandon the Compact. Most of this was corrected with the most recent publication – and thus the definitive word when it comes to canon – ''Field Manual: Capellan Confederation'', which stated that she was an SIMC officer. However, instead of correcting her General rank to the SIMC equivalent of Colonel or Senior Colonel, it revised her rank to the AFFC's Leftenant General, perhaps indicating liaison officers gain honorific ranks equivalent to those of their assigned state. + There are a number of continuity errors with this character, many seeming to stem from confusion over if she was a liaison to the AFFC, or a liaison ''from'' the AFFC.
