These are wonderful! The numbers might be skewed, because I think they'd have a larger percentage in Star Fleet, since the Crown Guard would be smaller since they only defended important people, of which there are relatively few. The Cosmic Explorer's are kind of seen as the joke of the military since all they do is find new things that are usually not that helpful, so they would also be smaller, and the Special Forced well... shhhhh definitely smaller since only a tiny fraction are even allowed to sign up for it.

MPs would probably be another larger one with the Star Fleet. I see those two being the most sought after positions in general.

The Cosmic Explorer departments might be a bit to on the nose too but for the insignia's and ranking systems, I think those will work great!
