What was Amelia Earhart's role in World War 2?

Amelia Earhart died on July, 2, 1937 over the Pacific ocean. She was born in 1897. It would have been wonderful to have her on hand for World War 2 as Charles Lindbergh was available for consultation with the new planes used in the Pacific Theater. I would imagine she would have welcomed a position helping the women to learn to fly when the women were trained to fly small planes and the big planes. I have to admit she is one of my heroines because of her bravery to do more than a difficult task of flying around the world.
