Ocean-going cruise ships have similar officers, known as Sea Marshal s. SKY MARSHALS IN ACTION FICTIONAL REFERENCES The term "sky marshal" has seen reference in some works of Science Fiction , albeit in a very different context. In Robert A. Heinlein 's '' Starship Troopers '', the Sky Marshal is the uniformed commander-in-chief of the Terran Federation military who has risen to the highest rank in both the naval and infantry branches of the military. The Terran Federation of the ''Starfire'' universe has a Sky Marshal in the exact same position. This usage is somewhat akin in the air force rank of Air Marshal . In the film '' Executive Decision '', the fictional Oceanic Airlines Flight 343 carried a Sky Marshal armed with a pistol, who played a minor role in subduing the Algerian hijackers. The movie '' Anger Management '' starts off with a confrontation between Adam Sandler 's character and an air marshal (played by Isaac C. Singleton Jr ). SEE ALSO |
