AK47.jpg This page is about a paramilitary group or organisation.

Paramilitary groups are any organization that participates in military actions exclusive of national armies.

The United States Military is split into six military branches: one training branch and five combat branches. The combat branches are separated by requirements in strength and activity, shown from lowest to highest here. The entire military is led by Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff .

The United States Military operates as a privately-funded force and is completely independent of funding from the United States Government.

Recruitment

Each branch has it's own requirements for enlistment. You should have the required minimum strength and minimum rank or minimum damage inflicted with bare fists as follows:

Branch Strength Rank Damage Activity
Training Corps None None None Low-Moderate
National Guard 50 Corporal 25 Moderate
Mobile Infantry 500 Lieutenant 85 Moderate
Army 1000 Major* 200 Moderate-High
Airborne 2500 Lt Colonel*** 550 Very High
Marine Corps 10000 World Class Force 3050 Extremely High

Branches

Training Corps

Led by Commanding Officer, General Brad Gwatney and Executive Officer, Lt. General Vacant, the Training Corps is the first step for all those wishing to enter the JCS led military. The Training Corps is a branch of the eUS Military dedicated to building the defense system of eAmerica. They take the raw, fresh recruits and turn them into the Marines of tomorrow. TC is the place where the new recruits make friends in game and also learn about the military of the eUnited States. New recruits go through 1-7 days of boot camp, learning the ins and outs of the game. Upon completion of initial training, troops are transferred to the 3rd Division, Reserves. There they continue to polish their military skills, while awaiting placement in another branch of the military. TC graduates may also consider a career in the TC, training new troops. The TC has no strength or rank minimums, but requires a moderate level of activity.

National Guard

The National Guard is the old base of the US military structure. It was divided into the Training Division, the Home Guard, and the Mobile Infantry in early May 2009. The Final Commanding officer of the National Guard was General Istarlan and Lt. General Knojerakk. In many ways Knojerakk became the head of the defunct National Guard during this transition as General Istarlan had retired. See also: USNG 6th Platoon Bulletin

In February 2010 during a Joint Chiefs of Staff structure reorganization, the National Guard was reinstated in place of the defunct Home Guard as a mobile military force with a dedicated domestic battalion for land-locked personnel while the rest of the branch is able to deploy overseas and participate in mobile strike operations. The National Guard is currently led by General Jadiv and her Executive Officer, Lt. General Vacant.

Mobile Infantry

Main article: Mobile Infantry

Led by General Heather Fuchs and Lt. General ChristopherEller, the Mobile Infantry is the first step along the way to a successful career in the eUS military. The MI is dedicated to the defense of eAmerican interests both at home and abroad. As a deploying force, infantrymen leave the nation regularly, and therefore will only accept soldiers who are willing and able to break business and party ties for days at a time. The MI is filled with active, dedicated soldiers who are willing to fight for their country, as well as quickly following orders without question. Currently, the MI has the largest force in the eUSA military. To be accepted into the MI, you must have a strength level of at least 500 and be moderately active.

United States Army

Main article: United States Army

Led by General Kria Erikson and Lt. General Vacant, United States Army consists of the Divisions of the former Army Group West, the 1st, 5th, and 25th, as well as the divisions in the former United States Cavalry, the 3rd and 11th. It also houses its own Ranger program. When the Army Group West reverted back to the name of the U.S. Army, the Army Group East became the U.S. Cavalry, which was later re-merged with the Army.

To be accepted into the Army's ranks, soldiers need a minimum of 1000 strength, a rank of at least Major*, and a moderately high activity level.

Airborne

Airborne.png

Led by General ChubbZilla and Lt. General Vacant, the Airborne is an elite fighting force. The basic premise of the Airborne is that they can arrive with such speed that a coherent defense cannot be mounted against them for some time. Airborne forces are military units set up to be moved by aircraft and 'dropped' into battle. Thus they can be placed behind enemy lines, and have an ability to deploy almost anywhere with little warning. Paratroopers must be very active, along with having a strength of at least 2500 and a minimum rank of LtCol***.

Marine Corps

United States Marine Corps.png

Led by Commandant General Cstarlight21 and Vice-Commandant Lt. General krimpiekat, the United States Marine Corps are eAmerica's finest. The Marines are a brotherhood of the strongest and most dedicated soldiers that the eUS and the eWorld have to offer. They are the first and most frequent to deploy, get the best weapons, and take enemies down in no time. To join the ranks of the eUSMC, you must have a strength more then 6000 and rank National Force, or be able to do more than 1760 damage with bare fists and an extremely high activity level.

Former Branches

Air Force

Led by General galbatorix9z, the United States Air Force fought with votes instead of guns. Created in response to the lack of organization in the anti-PTO efforts of the May 2009 Congressional elections, the Air Force was a non-traditional area of the military. Its sole purpose was to stop PTOs in both allied and defenseless small countries around the world. Many members of other eUS military branches were also members of the Air Force. To join, you must have been willing and able to be mobile and ready to move on the night of CP, PP, and Congressional elections and vote in a country that was assigned, as opposed to using the vote at home. The end of the Air Force came when the initialization of eRepublik's citizenship system, which added a layer of protection by having foreign countries from being taken over by having congressmen personally approve citizenship requests. The branch has since been converted into a division in the Central Intelligence Agency.

Home Guard

Led by General qkoller, the Home Guard was the last line in the defense of the American homeland. As the military's stay-at-home force, the HG did not deploy on foreign missions, although they did allow their soldiers leave to deploy in allied conflicts. Instead, the Home Guard kept themselves at a high state of readiness in preparation for any threat to American soil. The HG was the perfect place for congressmen or other citizens who could not deploy to foreign nations, but still wanted to proudly support their country through military service.

Army High Command

The eUnited States Army High Command originally served as the logistics, management, and oversight for Army Group East and Army Group West post-split from the United States Army on February 12, 2010. However, after an intensive review in logistics overlap, Army High Command was dissolved and split into their respective counterparts in Army Group East and Army Group West on February 29, 2010.

United States Army Group East

Army Group East, or [AGE] consisted of the former United States Army's Second, Fourth, and Tenth Infantry Divisions. In addition, it housed a more prominent Army Ranger program (nicknamed [RAGE]). The branch was rebranded to the United States Cavalry on June 30, 2010.

United States Army Group West

Army Group West, or [AGW] consisted of the former United States Army's First, Fifth, and Twenty-Fifth Infantry Divisions. It also housed their own Ranger program. The branch was rebranded to the United States Army on June 30, 2010, reactivating the briefly disbanded branch after the Army split into three separate entities on February 12, 2010.

Cavalry

Main article: United States Cavalry

United States Cavalry, formerly Army Group East, consisted of the former United States Army Group East's Second, Fourth, and Tenth Infantry Divisions. In addition, the Cavalry housed a Ranger program from AGE and that had been rebranded as the United States Rangers. It was led by General Ralph Ericson, Lt. General Ethix, and Major General DeyoZero.
