[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] Yup, nothing ambiguous about that any more. The date this scheme was introduced is less clear, though. I must agree with Reverend that calling the Marines "Marines" is a silly idea and indicates a lack of imagination. Which is why I'm removing such references from the Hitchhiker's Guide right away. :) Apart from that, though, I like the idea of dedicated ground action forces that are wholly separate from Starfleet Security. I'm not averse to the idea of fighting forces that bridge the gap between these two, though. And at least during the TOS movie era, I'd be quite ready to believe in a Babel of special forces, two or three per each "service branch"... Whether the early 24th century was peaceful enough to see Starfleet de-escalation is debatable. In basically every new era we've been introduced to, the third or fourth season has revealed wars in the "recent past". I'm reserving a spot for an Enterprise-C show in this regard. :) Frankly, the UFP looks like a rather bellicose little setup, despite the outwardly pacifism, and would no doubt have stepped on a couple of tentacles during the early 24th, too.
