Early life
El Facil
In 788 UC (479 IC / 3588 CE), when she was 14 years old, Greenhill was on the planet El Facil, visiting family with her mother, when the star system was invaded by the Galactic Empire. The higher-ranking FPA officers — who were charged with protecting the planet — fled, leaving the young Sub-lieutenant Yang Wen-li in charge of the evacuation effort. In the course of the evacuation, Frederica brought Yang some coffee when he was choking on a sandwich.[clean-up needed] After he had drunk the coffee, Yang told her: I hate coffee. I wish you'd given me tea. Yang would apologise for his rude comments when the two met again, eight years later.
Thanks to Yang's efforts, Frederica and her mother, along with several million other civilians, were successfully able to escape El Facil before the Imperial forces occupied the planet.
Military career
13th Fleet
After the Battle of Astarte, Yang Wen-li was given command of the newly formed 13th Fleet. Admiral Alex Cazerne assigned Greenhill as Yang's personal aide. At the time, she held the rank of sub-lieutenant.

Later life
Marriage
After the surrender of the Free Planets Alliance, Yang proposed marriage to Frederica, and she accepted. They both resigned from the Fleet and married shortly afterwards.
Although Yang anticipated several years of peace, it was less than a year before the Alliance, under pressure from Kaiser Reinhard's consul, arrested him. Greenhill participated in Yang's rescue, personally shooting an Alliance officer who attempted to execute her husband, and subsequently resumed her role as Yang's adjutant through the following campaign.
Iserlohn Republic
After the Battle of the Corridor, Frederica fell ill due to fatigue and was confined to bed — preventing her from accompanying Yang when he travelled to negotiate with Reinhard.[clean-up needed] After Yang's assassination, Frederica accepted the role of political representative for the Yang Fleet and supported Julian Mintz as the military leader — although she stated she would rather democracy had died than Yang.

'I clearly remember a young lieutenant taking command... gnawing a sandwich because he didn't have the spare time to eat.'
