Talk:John Smith

Name
Is it likely that this ONI operative's name is simply a pseudonym? I mean, what's the chances of an ONI operative having two of the most common names? SomethingDifferent 19:50, 30 July 2011 (EDT)


 * Considering that they're two of the most common names... Quite likely. But yeah, it's also odd to name someone 'John Smith', because no one believes someone could really have that name.--  Fore  run  ner '' 20:35, 30 July 2011 (EDT)


 * As I recall - I haven't read Evolutions in over a year - the Marines express suspicion over whether "John Smith" is his real name. Of course, I might be misremembering that aspect of the story. --Courage never dies. 21:38, 30 July 2011 (EDT)

Branch
Shouldn't this guy be Navy? 1-1 Marines


 * The Navy doesn't have a Major rank. The equivalent rank is Lieutenant Commander. He is therefore a Marine or Army officer attached to Naval Intelligence - more likely to be a Marine, given the historical closeness between the two branches, but Army ONI officers aren't impossible. --  Qura 'Morhek   The Autocrat     of Morheka   16:37, 16 December 2012 (EST)
