Major Sam Nicholls had been due to go to Kabul with 2 SCOTS, who she described as being like her family .
She has been a part of the battalion for 18 months but could not join them when they left for Afghanistan in October.
A long period of recovery followed, but Major Nicholls is now assisting NHS staff – part of several vaccine quick reaction forces in Scotland, which can be called upon to give health boards a helping hand.
