Armed Forces and society: problems of non human alien integration

Armed Forces and society: problems of non human alien integration‏‎



Early in Union History the only non human member were the Ult, but they could easily adapt to human environments and

requirements. There were even voices within the young Union to prohibit non humanoid species membership.[1]

These voices never gained more than 2 % approval at the Assembly, and the book "Armed Forces and society: problems of non human alien integration" written by

Army Colonel Aaron Wetherby drifted into obscurity almost as soon as it was written. But the book actually did rise many valid points and Ult Admiral Wapp Smokes who is

considered by many the father of the Union Fleet [2]‏‎ Smokes used the book to define the basic physical requirements for a being to be

able to serve in the Navy. The Marine BaPhy regulations are a direct result of this book. It also details the problems and challenges of a commanding officer to find fair and balanced

tasks and assignments to both human and non human beings.

The book is now required reading material for all Union Command Officers and command candidates. Because the issues also work vice versa: for a Non Human Command Officer with human crew members.

The book is part of the so called Captain's Treasure and every Union Captain must know it by heart.
