Science Fiction Convention

Our theme this year is Military Science Fiction. Military SF is defined by the Wikipedia as: "A subgenre of science fiction in which the principal characters are members of a military service and an armed conflict is taking place, normally in space, or on another planet. A detailed depiction of the conflict, the tactics used to wage it, and the role of a military service and the individual members of that service forms the basis for a work of military science fiction. The stories often take features of actual past or current Earth conflicts, with countries being replaced by entire planets or galaxies of similar characteristics, and certain events changed so that the author can extrapolate on what might have occurred."
