somehow, you found me again

(takes hat off and places it on my chest) howdy please forgive this farm boy if he later today posts his dcst ocxcc

10/10, no notes, ejecución perfecta, real y basado

I didn't know about the encyclopedia! I used my own knowledge on the military forces of the U.S. On chapter 157 of the manga iirc, Stanley is seen wearing a formal Marines uniform, and military badges that he could only obtain if he was either a Marine or in the Navy (which would make sense, since both Navy officers and Marine officers are under the jurisdiction of the U.S Navy). The Marines do have an aereal unit where he could have learnt to pilot a plane (although they focus mostly on helicopters, they do have planes!). If he was Air Force and 'special unit' he would have to had joined the AFSPECWAR, and the members of such have very specialised roles within their ranks which would not encompass all of Stanley's skills (unless he's something like SWMS, but that's a mostly support position for other combatants afaik). Well, personally I also tend to agree with what a Marine would mix better with Stanley's personality and skills, even if he does drive a plane twice... Maybe Inagaki and Boichi weren't really that into that specific part of the research or they didn't discuss it beforehand...? (⁠´⁠；⁠ω⁠；⁠｀⁠) The Marine's formal uniform is a pretty one after all... They could've just chosen the uniform and badges for aesthetics...

I know it mostly through research and because I like war movies (I'm Chilean lol I've never been to the U.S) but yes...! Although I can see Xeno joining uni very early considering he is indeed a super genius, the ranks and jobs for the rest of his team are insane... I would have assumed they were all military from the get go since they were all invited to the secret government meeting about the swallow petrification event so they must have a significant rank and experience but apparently... They aren't?? Like only Leonard makes sense to me lol randomly recruiting them from unrelated jobs makes them feel like they are the Avengers or something rather than proper soldiers ┐⁠(⁠‘⁠～⁠`⁠;⁠)⁠┌
