In Response To: More Adventures in 'Who Writes This Stuff!?' (General Battuta) Though as for whether or not Bungie did it intentionally is beyond me. If this is the Army contacting the Navy, then the formality would essentially make sense. If communications in the future are as whack as they are in the present, communicating between different branches of the armed forces can be a real bitch during a combat situation. There are so many channels of communication going on within each branch that you pretty much have to call in and wait for your communications to be redirected to the other branch you're trying to get in touch with. This is going based off of realism, btw. Imagine being a Marine unit in Iraq aware of an enemy position and seeing an Army unit heading right toward an ambush without any way to get word to them because of how long it takes to get the right unit on the right communications setup all before they end up entering that ambush. The SIIIs are Army, right? So it would make sense that they'd be addressing the Frigate in this way.
