As I've said on here before, I'm a civvy. My only 'military' experience comes from the cadet force, as both cadet and instructor, and from a huge appetite for military history. That said I'm the one in our game who has the most 'experience' and knowledge of things military. This seems to work pretty well for our group, the only thing I've really added for their benefit is a 'tactics' roll that the players can make for knowledge that their characters have that they don't. Its usually just a case of using it to point out that there may be a better plan than full frontal assault. Having said that, possibly because of their lack of experience I do tend to find them being fairly cautious throughout the game.
