I think it's 1 year.

It's not clear to me either.  Make a ruling.  I'd allow TAS members get
free basic lodging and food at TAS hotels.  Shipboard it's part of the

Squadron game to get an idea.  Scout base is anyone's guess, although I
think there are some published adventures with example scout bases.

No.
