Excluding the Commanding Officer and synthetic support units, most USCM vessels only carry combat personnel aboard. Any supply, engineering, or medical duties are carried out by the marines themselves. Repairs too complex for marines are carried out by synthetics, with surgeries being handled by an autodoc suite. Occasionally a vessel may employ additional support staff in the form of doctors, engineers, and requisitions personnel, though this is uncommon.
Military Police are not a frequently present force aboard marine ships, with the bulk of disciplinary action being carried out by the NCOs of the vessel.
USCM FTL is highly dangerous, utilizing a tachyon shunt to get from one destination to the other, speeding up time in the ship itself. Anyone not in hypersleep is, for lack of a better description, is forced into a tachyonic state, undergoing psychosis and rapid aging before quicky succumbing to the effects. Synthetics, however, are still capable of operating while a tachyon shunt is underway. Even with this process, the fastest vessels often take several days or even weeks to reach their destinations.
With the National Security Act of 2101, the USCM and Weyland-Yutani, among other corporations, have a close relationship. As such, the USCM may be activated as a short term security force in 'mutual corporate interests'.
