NotesEdit

• Like 'Dining on Babylon 5' the book is intended to be an "in-universe" publication, however unlike the aforementioned publication, the 'B5 Security Manual' contains a number of "fluff" entries and in-jokes that should not be taken at face value.
  • For example: Page 89 shows Sector 42 as being the home of the "D'Adams". Which is clearly a reference to Douglas Adams's The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, where the number 42 to is the answer to Life, the Universe and Everything.
