"My impression is that this is nothing but a name only honor. I don’t think she had any actual diplomatic function officially. Did she?"

It's only honorary - lets you get on the base,etc. But she bragged about it & flaunted it..made her feel like a big player.

She & her husband even bought their car license plates with the name Embassy Counel. She has no real standing except pass priveleges & whatever else she can milk out of it. She always flaunted the fact that Petraeus was her friend & helped her get this 'title'.

They did put on a big show, though - owed millions & their home is in default for 2 years.

Thanks Lady J. That was the impression I had, and I appreciate the note of agreement.

BTW: I appreciate the additional information and thoughts too.
