[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] For one thing, in "Severed Dreams" Major Ryan basically deferred to Sheridan completely for tactical planning and the overall strategy. Like when they got the news that Clark was sending in the heavy reinforcements, Ryan offered to run and try to create a diversion. I don't think that something like that can be explained by Sheridan being military governor of local space. I can't be bothered to check back over 6 pages worth of material, so this might have been mentioned before... but was the CO of the [i]Hyperion[/i] in "A Voice in the Wilderness" a Captain? I remember there was a big fight over who had ultimate authority in certain situations... but it seems strange, regardless. It makes little sense to have two concurrent rank systems get split apart and stacked on top of each other. I think that a continuing concurrence makes more sense... mostly. Actually, the first explanation, about Admirals and Generals, actually DOES make a bit of sense, IMO. Well, maybe. On second thought, the EarthForce Chief of Staff (Hague) was "only" a general, so I guess that nixes that. (Even more than that, why would a general, still involved in the tactics rather than the strategy, be Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff?) Ergh... back to square one, mostly. ;) [/QB][/QUOTE]
