She’s seen here airdropping medical supplies and carrying an injured man away, in one of her airborne ambulances – this is the correct model and everything.
She is also dropping some of her endless numbers of medals out of the plane — all of which are modeled after the actual medals she won. (check the reference imagery!)
There’s a hot air balloon in the background as a callback to her adventures in ballooning.
