I'm enjoying this, as I've enjoyed all your fics, but I have to admit that I was shocked by seeing UNIT referred to as a 'paramilitary' organisation. I'm from N. Ireland, so that has very specific connotations for me. On reflection, though, it works - more so for 2011 UNIT from what we've seen.
I'm not sure it's come through in the story (yet - it's just been hinted at so far), but there is an evolution (devolution??) that is happening here within UNIT towards what we see in SJA and Nu Who. Which is why the Brigadier kept the Doctor at the 'old' UNIT headquarters. At this point it hasn't become clear but it will.
Also coming from Canada, I'm certain that we don't have the same 'feel' for the word as you do.

I love it. I will neither confirm nor deny that they will or will not be at some time occupied in said manner.
Yes, I thought it was appropriate given Bessie was about to be brought up. Wonder who she got that habit from?
