... In other fields, it is quite common for the senior person involved to say things like "my team," "my staff," "our people," etc. I refer to my MA as "my" assistant, because that is what he or she is. It is just a figure of speech. I am so tired of people looking for things to be offended by.

Another PP commented re 'military' referrals.

It occurs in the NON-NSG world all the time.
