The New Miss England - Katrina Hodge
From Ghost of a Flea:
More on the beautiful Ms. Hodge:There are still tough women in England.
A soldier who has served in Iraq has been officially crowned Miss England after the original winner relinquished the title last year to clear her name.
L/Cpl Katrina Hodge, 22, from Tunbridge Wells, Kent, was drafted in when Rachel Christie stepped down following her arrest over an alleged nightclub brawl.
Challenged by her older brother to join the Army, she signed up aged 17. After basic training she was assigned to the Royal Anglian Regiment. She reported for duty at their barracks in Winchester, Hampshire, wearing kitten heels, false eyelashes and with her clothes in a pink suitacse, earning her the nickname Combat Barbie.
She rose to fame after it was reported in the British papers in 2005 that she had won a bravery award whilst serving with the Royal Anglian Regiment in Iraq for wrestling two rifles from a prisoner and then flooring him with her bare hands - thus saving lives of her fellow comrades. She was promoted to corporal.
Thanks to Total.
