Whenever the topic of Claire returning in new stories comes up, I notice there always seems to be some resistance to her coming back. There's this misconception that Claire is now just some aid worker/humanitarian/civilian/activist who never actually goes out in the field and doesn't get into combat anymore after she joined Terrasave but that is very wrong.

Claire is shown to be an active investigator and combatant in the field for Terrasave in her last 3 appearances. Combat may not necessarily be her main job but it certainly isn't something she runs from if it comes down to it.

Other Terrasave members are also fighters if needed. Revelations 2's opening with the Terrasave ad showcased Terrasave members going to the Kijuju area from RE5. Later on in Rev2, Gabe says "Just like Kijuju!" implying Terrasave fought leftover monsters when going there.

The ending of Revelations 2 has Claire literally return(armed with a sniper and rocket) to Alex's island as the main cavalry to save Moira, Barry and Natalia even though she didn't have to be the one to go back. She already escaped months prior and could've left the rescue to other Terrasave/BSAA forces when the island's location was finally discovered but there she is leading the charge.

The Heavenly Island manga(set 3 years after Revelations 2) depicts Claire and another Terrasave member investigating other islands that end up having monster outbreaks and old umbrella facilities. When things escalate, Claire calls Chris and the BSAA for support. Chris can't personally come since he's in the middle of another mission far away but he sends Parker from Revelations 1 and other more nearby BSAA forces to assist Claire in fighting off monsters and rescuing civilians.

The Death Island animated movie(set 1 year after Heavenly Island) still depicts Claire as an active investigator in the field. San Francisco has been suffering through various smaller scale T-virus zombie attacks and whales are going missing with one turning up dead on a beach mauled by something unknown/too big.(later revealed to be a mutated giant shark). Claire delivers the whale's corpse to the local BSAA in the area(Chris, Jill and Rebecca) to confirm its virus related. When Rebecca discovers the link to the recent infected people was that they all visited Alcatraz, Claire goes with Chris and Jill to investigate. Claire fights monsters with other characters throughout the story.
