Buffyverse Military Query
I have a query for the writers and military members of the flist. I'm writing a Faith undercover at the Pentagon fic for the My Fair Faith ficathon over at Facets_of_Faith and have a couple of queries.
1) The Pentagon is a no salute zone for all ranks am I correct? Is there any military etiquette for giving way to superior officers in lifts , escalators, doorways etc ?
2)Faith is going undercover as a 1st Lt in the Marines (I know she's a bit young) but this is Hollywood Buffy military here.:-) Would she be in the Marine service uniform or Greens in the Pentagon? My only knowledge of the building comes from E-Ring and JAG.
3) Xander is using his soldier knowledge to train her would but is undercover as an Army Captain would this be remarked upon or the would the JSC nature of the building mitigate against that.
4) Which ring would the iniative successor likely be in. Hidden away with the accountants ?
5) Are foreign military aides stationed at all in the building or just visitors.
6) Time of reporting for duty. I figure this may be earlier than Faith is up being somewhat of a night owl so throwing out her body clock and making for grouchy Faith.:-)
I'm going to make up the security arrangements on the front entrance.
