History
Melinda May used to be a field agent for S.H.I.E.L.D., and was highly skilled at her job. She became a colleague of Agent Phil Coulson. During her time as a field agent, she was assigned a case where some superhumans had kidnapped a group of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in a compound. May went in alone, and through some unknown means, "resolved the situation", getting the captured agents out. Her actions got her commendation and she was nicknamed "the Cavalry". However, traumatized by what she had done, she requested reassignment to a quiet desk job in recent years.
When Agent Coulson was given permission to start a team for special assignments May was one of the first he recruited under the promise that she would only be "driving the Bus". This proved false as she was forced to use her field experience once again in their first few missions.[1]

Advanced hand-to-hand combat.
Veteran pilot and soldier.
Paraphernalia

Notes
Ming-Na Wen portrays Melinda May as a regular character on the television series Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Trivia
Her current ID badge serial number is A 078624; the card was issued on 4 September 2013, and will expire on 4 September 2019.
Also in the episode "Seeds" she admitted to Agent Coulson that she was having sex with Agent Ward.
