Changes coming to the eIDF

Day 893, 06:53 Published in Israel Israel by eIsraeli Defense Force
The eIDF is changing to accommodate v2.

Over the last two months, eIDF Senior Command has been working on a plan to adjust to the changing needs of the military under v2. The changes have been approved, and later this week they will be implemented. We are starting the new organization now so the soldiers and officer have a chance to adjust to a new way of operating before v2 comes into play.

So what is changing?

We will be organized along functional lines. We will still have the traditional Private>Sergeant>Lieutenant>Maj or command chain, but along with their units, each soldier will also belong to a functional group – either Strategy, Quartermaster/Logistics (supply chain), or Communications/Translations. A description of the new organization can be found here:

New Divisions and old

The Training Corp will take on two new roles. Along with training new recruits (Boot Camp), the TC will also be responsible for the new Officer Training School (OTS) and the Reserve Corp. Officer Training School is fairly self-explanatory. The Reserve Corp will be similar to the current Defense Corp Second Platoon in that it will not be a deployable force, and will be tasked with defending eIsrael if she is attacked. It will also have a somewhat expanded role than the current DC 2n😛

The Reserve Corp will include:
-Recent graduates from Boot Camp who are waiting for a spot to open in the Defense Corp
-Recent graduates of Boot Camp who do not want to deploy
-Recent graduates from Boot Camp who are not active enough for the Defense Corp
-Anyone currently in elected office

The Defense Corps will be limited to soldiers who:
-are willing and able to deploy when needed (though deployment is not guaranteed – it will be determined on a battle by battle basis)
-are willing to spend time each day chatting on IRC with their squadmates
-are active both in the game and on the forum

What now?

Shortly all members of the current eIDF will be placed in their appropriate places in the new organization. If you have not yet, you will receive a roll call message requesting your times of normal activity. This information will be used to place you in your new unit. Anyone who does not respond in a timely manner will be placed in the Reserves and may reapply to the Defense Corps at a later time.

We expect to still have some officer positions available when the current soldiers are moved. We will be accepting applications from current eIDF members for those positions once they are identified.

The current recruitment application will be closed. Once we are ready to accept new recruits, we will open a new recruitment application for citizens to apply to the new organization. We will post the application link once we are ready to accept new recruits.

tl:dr

-eIDF is changing
-If you aren’t active or you are in the Knesset you’ll be in the Reserves
-Answer your Roll Call when you get it
