That would be something that the Underground would take care of on a fairly regular basis for a great many of its recruits. Let's say that Terran Military Intelligence would probably let them know by roundabout methods -- after the Jils finished snooping around.
As for the Skelzir globes, one of them does show up on Midgard in a later story, but that one will have to be re-written at a later date, because my sister had the only draft of it, and when she got married it vanished: misplaced somewhere, no doubt. She says she may try to recreate the story eventually. I hope she does, because she wrote the plot to it, and it was a doozy.
