:I don't follow you Hawke: of course he's Fleet. I don't understand you. I mean, [[Marine]]s have an entirely different set of [[uniform]]s and stuff. As for "general demeanor" I don't see how that makes him a Marine anymore than Col. Tigh, and his uniform arrangement is the same as all the others. --[[User:The Merovingian|The Merovingian]] <sup>([[Special:Contributions/The Merovingian|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/The Merovingian|E]])</sup> 21:59, 28 March 2006 (CST) | :I don't follow you Hawke: of course he's Fleet.

::I was wondering the same, having just watched Razor. It wasn't so much his uniform that made me wonder it | ::I was wondering the same, having just watched Razor. It wasn't so much his uniform that made me wonder it, but more the question of why Cain would have assigned someone of such a low rank as Lieutenant to perform what is presumably thought of as a very important task. One would assume that he either has a reputation for brutality / sourcing information as an "extra vocational skill", or he is in some sort of appropriate role. Marines would seem appropriate. | ||
::Another thought I had was that he's quite, well, old to be a Lieutenant, really. Either he isn't very good at his job, and didn't earn the promotions - unlikely, given the respect he earned from the crew, and the responsibility Cain places in him - or he was "Mustanged" from Enlisted service. --[[User:Captain Untouchable|Captain Untouchable]] 02:00, 20 August 2009 (UTC) | ::Another thought I had was that he's quite, well, old to be a Lieutenant, really.
