Back in 2021, I wrote a discourse plugin to display 'custom user field' values on user profiles, which would enable linking to personnel files. The problem is our discourse database doesn't have personnel user ids associated with the forum users. So we'd either have to build an integration (and manually update all the existing ones), or create an endpoint in personnel-v3 like /users-by-forum-id/123 that takes you to a personnel file from a forum user ID. Of course not all forum users will have personnel files (e.g. they haven't enlisted).

EDIT: Doesn't Discourse SSO store the personnel system user ID?
