( Time to meet the enemy... )

All I gotta say is seriously, the 501st is the regiment we're in? It's either one hell of a coincidence or someone picked that up from our world somewhere. Pretty much everyone back home knew about the 501st before the Empire fell.

Everywhere is...loud. Is there anywhere I can get some quiet without being disturbed? Meditation is quite important and it's easy to get interrupted, even in quarters.

All right Boys, Girls and every other kind of being. This is John Stewart: Master Sergeant, Coalition Marine Corps. I've got good news and bad news. The bad news, I'm fresh from Bastion and... things aren't exactly going well up there. It's been under siege from a Tide armada for the past two weeks. Good news, Captain Picard aims to do something about that. But he's going to need everyone- hence why I'm talking to you.

CMC candidates are made up of individuals with prior service history or special skills. You may be used to calling the shots, but for now you have to be content to simply be part of the team. We can sort out your Rank Qualification Exam after we liberate Bastion. As of right now, my job is figure out what you can do, how well you do it, and then put you where you'll do the most good.

You got questions, you ask them here. Otherwise, I'll see you tomorrow at 0500 for PT.

*The post forwards an information packet to your Personal Data Device. It contains your grueling Training Schedule, along with Coalition Marine training manuals. They contain basic need-to-know information: Maps of the Chiron; how to operate various airlocks and computer terminals on the ship; procedure for call to battle stations or other emergencies; and breakdowns operation and maintenance of the Marine M21A Pulse Rife, M5 Pistol, Space Combat Hardsuits.*

Guess the space-geography lesson had its uses. But I'd prefer some Intel on the fuckin monsters that ate my friends. Got a score to settle.
