Quartermaster, Logistics
Katy learned supply management and logistics as a matter of survival during the Spanish Civil War. While traveling in south eastern Spain she was apprehended by a more anarchist faction of Franco's political movement. Forced to choose between being thrown to her death from the Puente Nuevo bridge or to become a munitions transporter, Katy wisely chose self preservation. Her natural organization skills and bookkeeping prowess advanced her quickly through the hierarchy of the army. She was placed in command of all clandestine transport in just a few months. Franco himself, upon hearing of her capabilities, personally assigned her the task of meeting the Soviet emissaries that were bringing the financial support promised by Stalin. When Katy returned to Catalina with the "Moscow Gold" packed safely in a short steam train, Franco was ecstatic and proclaimed that the fall of communism in Spain was nearing its end. Katy, while opposed to the wealth retarding economics of communism, could not support Franco's socialism. She had already seen the brutality of his nature that would lead to his future repressive leadership. During the night, Katy, along with some hired accomplices, tunneled under the train and relieved it of its cargo. The gold remained buried under the freight yard in Barcelona until 1975, when Franco's death prevented him from continuing his search.
In the meantime, Katy had fled first to Mexico and then to Haiti, where she met the Voodoo Priest who would become her husband. After marrying him, and removing his extensive body tattoos, Katy and Laird returned to Spain in 1975 to reclaim the stolen gold. Once the gold was safely tucked away in the Family's vault, Katy and Laird used some of the money to purchase three slave-children from wandering Inca nomads: Captain Ethan, Daring Duncan, and Loud Liam.
