Some questions to help me with constructing Scout PC's
In the Operations Office of the Scout Service, we have the following branches:
Maintenance, Security, Base, and something called the "Scout Fleet".
First Question: For those who are in the Bureaucracy and serving in the operations
Office, do they ever get sent to the "Scout Fleet", or is the "Scout Fleet" simply an
administrative box to put all field people into? This "Scout Fleet" thing confuses me
a little bit. Is this a situation where people from the Bureaucracy can still serve in the
field?
Second Question: According to an article in JTAS#6, THE IISS pg11-14, Scouts in war
time are given a temporary rank1 in appropriate to the service in which they are serving.
Assuming this is done with Book 6 Chargen, would it allow as an example a Scout who is
a O-2 Junior Administrator engaged in a war mission the rank of O-2 Sublietenant? Would
same Scout be able to retain such rank when he/she/it musters out?
Third Question: Somewhat related to the second, if a Scout has been transferred into a
Navy, Marine, or Army unit as a result of a war mission, would such Scout be eligible for
decorations? At the very least, should all Scouts, regardless of Office or Branch, that engage in a war mission serving in a Navy, Marine, or Army unit, be eligible for the purple heart?
I be totally confuddled on these subjects
