The book is by Christopher Anvil (got a catchy name there eh?),
and is part of a series. The stories were mostly published as
short stories in Analog in the fifties and sixties. The collected
story of the invasion was published as Pandoras Planet.

General Horship's Headquarters Guard is the only unit in the
Centran military awarded the Platinum Nova as a unit for bravery
beyond the call of sanity.

Christopher Anvil's stuff is a little on the lightweight side,
but intensely enjoyable if you're in the right mood. If you like
your space opera with a touch of humor, this is good stuff.
