Since they specified female, there is presumably also at least one male trebuchet master as well, meaning that the UK considers trebuchets important enough to have multiple trebuchet Masters.

The new alternative to Trident. It's cheaper to have trebuchets posted around the coastline than nukes scooting around on submarines and offers about the same amount of protection from the country being nuked.
offers about the same amount of protection from the country being nuked.
Sadly true lol
It’s the cheapest means of getting fresh beef from point A to point B. I am surprised burgericanos haven’t discovered it yet
Now hear me out...Railguns
They said cheapest, not fastest. Ain't no UK business got railgun delivery money...
OK now we have the stem girls' attention
There’s a restaurant on the outskirts of bangkok that launches a whole rotisserie chicken from a slingshot over the guests tables and impales on a spike on the helmet of a guy on a unicycle next to your table
Being "trebuchet master" without "Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics"... doubt
Sounds like multidisciplinary peak perfocmance to me.
Interesting that "Mother, 33" doesn't have a name
Have you never read a newspaper before?
wait they did not ask for 10 years experience in the field?
100 hours of aoe2 and we've got a deal
Oh, I got that! Do you think the Brits will accept a foreigner from a place that wasn't one of their colonies?
Best I can do is 80 hours of Besiege, take it or leave it
The military will need skills like that once modern civ collapses later this century.
As a retired toolmaker, I see your trebuchet and raise you the artillery piece I made for myself - a small Coehorn mortar of about 50mm/2" bore.
I've known 2 toolmakers that have built their own full scale full functional Gatling guns from scratch also.
Building a trebuchet to hurl rocks is stem though
It didn't say she builds them though
Probably makes more money as a trebuchet operator too
Behold the return of the Mighty Trebuchet Memes!
If not STEM, then HEAL? (Health, Education And Learning)
To be pedantic, that's still covered under E
Mother, 33, stops being a scientist to do science.
~~science~~ engineering
Siege engineering to be precise
I mean, if this were 1400 AD, sure...
