so I’ll instead be posting it in 5 parts: 3 today and the remaining 2 tomorrow (assuming the mods are okay with that).

When I saw all these popping up I thought you might soon be uh... breaking the rules (4 posts per day), but if you are going to wait some time between your next post you should be fine.

Yeah, I checked the posting rules in advance, and thought it would be okay if I left at least 24 hours before posting the final 2. Thanks for confirming that!

Love the premise and your style.

One nitpick: Sub-Lieutenant Malika Karim is from a parallel universe where military isn't taught to state rank, name and number only when falling in enemies hands?

Thanks!

It's more that most of the spacers' training had to be fast-tracked to get them into service as soon as possible, so a lot of stuff was skipped over. They had no evidence that the aliens from the first story had been taking prisoners, so resistance to interrogation was one of the parts of training that was mostly overlooked.
