This page is for things Fleet does.
Command vs Specialist
Command track officers are heading for administrative positions (Admiral, Captain, First Commander). They rotate throughout departments as they rank up. Specialists stay in their department for the duration of their careers. "There was already some friction between career specialists and the command officers phasing in and out of their areas of responsibility." [1]
Special Positions
Not sure whether to put these here or in the Fleet manuals, so...
- Alien Liaison: person in charge of overseeing communication with Flitzbe and/or water environment aliens.
- NOTC: ("not-see"). New Officer Training Coordinator.
Logistics Stuff
Stuff here about the Fleet seal, mentioned in Faith.
Captain's Retreats (is that what I named it officially? I should check)
Specialist Turnover
"one of the many compromises Fleet's traditionalist had made with the militant faction that insisted letting people "rot" in the same ship their entire career wasn't doing Fleet any favors. Rather than moving personnel in and out of the roster as they advanced, the way the human Navy did, Fleet waited until a large enough number of specialists had enough logged time in their positions, and had indicated a willingness to shift assignments, and then did an entire raft of them at once. They claimed this was less disruptive than the human way of doing things; Taylitha wasn't sure she agreed. She wasn't the only one either, because like most compromises this one pleased no one." [2]
