Tech Talk

[Davis, E.]

A few quick questions.

1. What kind of peripheral tech do we have? I mean like HUD's, wrist computers, etc.

2. Are we given a tech? Like the Navy would assign a Corpman, it would make sense to have a Tech attached to us as well, depending on the mission.

3. I don't really have a third question, but you're always supposed to have three, right?

Okay, I'll answer in order.

1. Every Marine has a HUD provided by their neural lace. It provides a target reticle and the ammo in the weapon you have, as most weapons smart link to your lace. Other options are probably there, but those are the basics. I'd assume maybe a compass at the top center of your HUD (as shown in ODST), but don't quote me on it lol.

2. I'm pretty sure anyone can receive training as a tech. I don't want to say that it is its own MOS, but perhaps a skill to be learned. For instance, like CLS. Marines can certify in Combat Life Saving, but there is no MOS identifer for it. It's just noted in their service record.

3. Yes. I'm pretty sure that's a rule somewhere.
