Bio: Born October 17, 1968 in Gran Rugido the daughter of an air force officer killed in combat and the 3rd daughter of a family of 6. When she was 8 years old she was diagnosed with the hypermnesia syndrome that leaves her with an active memory.
At 17 years old she joined the air force thanks to her intelligence and her syndrome following her father's career. At 18 she was assigned to the squadron 678 callsign "Horse" . At 26 to 27 years her first experience in combat occurs during the Belka war during this period she managed to crash 15 planes in her missions before she was shot down in a mission in the B7R air and on the day that was scheduled for her in the mountains of Waldreich on 6th June 1995 leaving her with recurrent psychological trauma and nightmares due to that day.
Soon after this war, looking to further improve her skills and in search of money and reputation, she decides to become a mercenary.
In 1997 at the age of 29 she was hired by Usean Allied Forces in the coup d'état taking place on the continent of the USEA and assigned to the Scarface mercenary squad.
In 2003, aged 35, she was hired by the Independent State Allied Forces (ISAF) in the continental war against Erusea. And then over the years she was being hired and more and more being hired to resolve small conflicts over the years.

Right, so by your third attempt (sorry for missing the second), I'll assume it's been done and dusted to the best of your ability. So I'll be going down the list of issues as they arise:
1. O-3 slots are filled, as are O-2 slots. They are first come first serve and I'm afraid you weren't first for either. Please change this to O-1.
2. Hypermnesia syndrome isn't a specific condition but rather a blanket term for three. Lets go down the list of them and the issues that would arise: Hyperthymesia: this is close to what you're describing, however it has a grand total of 61 cases, ever. Out of close to 8 billion people alive right now.
Savant syndrome: would require your character to have a developmental disorder. Obviously disqualifying the character for military service.
Synesthesia: Essentially the brain being 'wired wrong' and causing multiple senses to fire off at once. Disqualifies you from military service.
I wouldn't mind your character having a profound memory, but this is pushing it a bit.
3. Trauma to the degree of audibly screaming across an entire airbase at night would have you ejected from the military on medical grounds extremely quickly, and would forbid you from ever serving again, anywhere.
4. Officer Candidacy School, and pilot traiuning combined take something close to 2 years. Being assigned to pilot planes at 18 as a fully fledged officer is unheard of.
5. Crashing planes and shooting planes down is a distinctly different event. If she did crash them, she wouldn't be allowed to pilot after the third, either because no one would let someone with a tendency to crash planes fly, or because the process of ejecting three times would compact your spine and leave you in crippling pain for the rest of your life.
6. She wasn't a part of Scarface. Don't integrate your character into canon squadrons without previous discussion, or previous presence in the same series of RPs. Same can be said for ISAF involvement.
