Default Re: [Basic] Skill of the week: Soldier

For the "routine tasks" it works a bit like Dabbler, and if GURPS were being rebuilt from scratch that might be a way to approach it.

In my space-navy game I use Professional Skill (Sailor) for this purpose, which I should possibly have called something else; it fits alongside Spacer (living aboard ship, basic shipboard tasks) and Savoir-Faire (Military). Ground troops do have normal Soldier, and there's obviously some overlap.
