What you recognize I don't own what little I know of the military is from my mom and a channel specifically for the military for ranks, websites
well it had been four long years since Comm. Harmon Rabb Jr. had gone missing and everyone at JAG was still depressed especially his long time partner Major Mackenzie. They had recently been told they would be getting two people interim and that one of them was in a unique position
"hey Major how much longer until the two new people come in?"
"not sure Harriet, but they should be coming in before noon"
"hey Tiner have you seen the Adm.?"
"no Major, but he said something yesterday about the airport"
Bud came in and asked a question that was on all of their minds
"hey guys, I was wondering something"
"what Bud?"
"does anyone know why one of the interim people are considered special circumstances"
they all think and then shake their heads. Suddenly they heard a very familiar voice
"snap to people!"
everyone stands at attention as soon as Adm. Creswell spoke up and they also faced him
"everyone I would like you to meet Lt. Kerenai and Lt. Comm. Simpson"
Sturgis was the first to speak up
"um sir, no offense but why is there a kid in JAG?"
everyone quickly learned that was the wrong thing to say around Kerenai because she simply walked right up to him and then got him at eye level no problem
"listen here buster, I do not care if you don't like me because of my age, I don't care if you don't like me because of my size, heck I don't even care if you don't like me because of my gender. What I do care about is respecting a superior officer, and one who has seen a lot of things classified to high up the chain of command from an early age that it was required to give her a military rank from an early age. Now then we will be working together and also seeing each other almost every day for the entire summer, I suggest we find a way of working with and around each other. And before you ask I do indeed have the training required for my rank, heck the government keeps wanting to promote me but sees my point in the fact that it would be a little strange having a kid out rank too many soldiers" (under her breath) "more like out ranking the President if needed" (out loud again) "so be quiet and pay attention"
she starts to leave and then turns around right before she reaches the admiral
"and next time I would suggest asking the admiral in private instead of embarrassing yourself in front of all your peers"
Creswell speaks up again
