Re: Cultural shock/differences
I don't see any Loroi joining Terran military for any reason other than appointed advisers. Seeing as how war is seen as the better half of politics to them, their institutions are probably light years ahead of ours.

Coming to Earth for a military career will probably result in disappointment. In the unlikely event that we're allowed to have any sort of significant military force the force is likely to be de facto restricted to humans. After all, the Loroi have their own military, why would we want them serving...
