So this is for an idea later on down the line, but say a military member of the expedition got married to a civilian on Atlantis, would that military member have to be in dress uniform. It would be a rest day, like the episode Sunday (sans people exploding or anything exploding). I don't know what the procedure would be in those types of situations. I've seen it before on tv, but I wasn't sure whether it's an actual thing or not. Even if it's not I might write it in, because I kinda like the idea.sigpic

I would think that service member would dress however they wanted to dress for their wedding.
As for what happens during the day of the wedding, those with duty at the appointed hour would be at their duty stations unless they were able to trade with others so they would be able to attend.
Also, I would think that they the actual Earth legal paperwork through the SGC in Colorado Springs as soon as convinient.No Sam w/o a Jack and no Jack w/o a Sam.

Apologies if this has been asked before.

For officers it is resigning their commission. Though for service academy graduates they are required to serve a minimum time in service before they can resign their commission. David Robinson graduated from Annapolis in 1987 but his height (7 feet 1 inch) prevented him from serving at sea and was commissioned as a civil engineering officer in the Naval Reserve serving on active duty for 2 years. All service academy cadets in addition to their academic studies are required to participate in an athletic program. Robinson played on the academy's basketball team and was the NBA's number 1 draft pic when he graduated in 1987. The which picked him the San Antonio Spurs had to wait for active service to end in 1989 before he play for them.
For enlisted, I would guess there is a similar process, though I do not know details. But I do know that in the US it depends on their enlistment contract. Most enlisted US personnel sign up for a fixed term as specified in their enlistment contract. Thus their is talk of re-upping (signing a new contract) or letting it expire and getting discharged from the service.No Sam w/o a Jack and no Jack w/o a Sam.

How much damage can cauterization 'heal'? And I know it's not healing. But how bad does the injury have to be before it's useless? Like let's say someone gets stabbed in a manner similar to the clip below. What is the time until death? Could that person retain consciousness, cauterize their own wound, then engage in one final firefight before receiving medical treatment?

Hey, I sincerely doubt this injury would be survivable, and that they would be able to cauterise it or continue fighting. Can't give you an ETA on death but it would be pretty damn quick, imo. Looks like that stabbing most likely crosses paths with some of the large vessels in the thorax including aorta/subclavian vein, as well as most likely stabbing right into the heart, particularly that second stabbing. Obviously lots of people survive severe looking injuries based on how lucky they are and important things get missed by mm, but generally speaking that looks pretty final to me.
The idea or merit behind cauterisation would be stemming blood flow to prevent blood loss, so depending on the nature of the injury cauterising may not change the outcome anyway, depending on where they've been hit.
If you want them to be able to continue a fight and want cauterisation involved, I think a "flesh" wound would be your best bet so you avoid vital organ damage. Abdominal stab wounds are another potential option if you want them to continue for a short period, because depending on site of stabbing and depth it's not unreasonable that they have a bit of time up their sleeve - they would most likely need abdominal surgery. I'm not really sure that cauterisation would help or hinder in this scenario though? There are still organs that could be penetrated in Abdo wound (liver/spleen/pancreas/kidneys/major vessels etc) so just depends on the context and nature of the injury you give them.
good luck!

Follow up question - have there ever been any cases of mass resignations?sigpic
