SBX carries about eighty people, commonly described as mostly civilian contractors. Civilian employment could include former service personnel or reservists, with some people still liable to recall. Whether this applies to SBX's crew remains explicitly uncertain. A civilian employment label alone does not establish military background or service obligations.
