EASY COMPANY
Join the best!

Currently the Military Fitness Academy is full. With the announcement of the Divisional Levels being reshuffled the times they are a changin. Sadly it was announced that currently we are accepting only self supporting soldiers. However, I encourage new players to apply anyway, get your name on the Academy Entrance List now. Those of you who are self supporting and want to fight with the best Private Military Unit in America, apply today; help Easy Company defend America.

‘Old soldiers never die, they just...’

Why are citizens who serve in this Private Military Unit so proud of their service to America?
Community. Pure and simple.

‘Give a man a fish...’. Everyone here knows that parable, in some form or another we have all heard it; my father pounded it into my head every Sunday. It took most of my life, but the one thing I have learned is ‘You can lead a horse...’. These sayings and many more like them, to a lot of citizens are just ‘dumb meaningless’ blah; for me they are nuggets of gold panned from the river of the collective knowledge of the community.

Military Fitness Academy
Reason #1
‘...teach a man to fish...’

The program which Easy Company should be most proud of is the Military Fitness Academy, a program that this Cadet owes a great deal and to whom I shall ever be loyal -CURRAHEE! My understanding is that EZC Company’s 3rd Regiment is made up of MFA Cadets, I am going to ask you all to hold your fighting; encourage you to read the MFA documents again and again -they are your Easy Company Bible. DO NOT FIGHT. For me those three words overnight have even more meaning. New Division Updates by: ubuntu21

Here I wish to also mention the Department of Interior program Bank Up 2 Strengthen Up, a ‘government’ program that this Cadet also owes a HUGE thank you; a DoI program which helped me progress through Division 1 much quicker than I anticipated and for which the they were HUGELY responsible.

10th Regiment, ‘The Ghost’
Reason #2
Brotherhood

There are many other reason Easy Company is the leading PMU in America, but one of the greatest is the fact that you do not have to have been born in America to be an American, never have; never will. Easy Company is a PMU full of diversity, filled with citizen soldiers who all believe in two things: Strength & Honor. There are a myriad of ways to express that statement, Easy does it through it’s international cadre of citizen soldiers; who daily fight alongside their Brothers.

‘There is Unity in Community...’
Reason #3
Community

Just like with the game of eRepublik it is Easy Company’s community which keeps citizens coming here day after day to ‘get ‘er done’. We come here with a desire to help our Homeland, even if it is just a game. We return everyday, to mount the walls protecting American Soil and American Ideals. It makes me very proud of serving with Easy Company, this Brotherhood of old friends who stuck with America.

In these times of changing alliances it is important to know who can be trusted to have our back, I trust no other citizens more than another Easy soldier; presently Easy Company soldier Wild Owl is President of the United States and we should be proud of that fact. Wild Owl has represented America, Easy Company, his Party and himself very well. There are many more like Wild Owl filling the ranks of Easy Company, there are many more of our soldiers in positions of influence; YOU could be one of those leaders.

Military Hoodlum

Some of you know me as several different citizens. Henry Pfeiffer Arundel knows me as CHS, even though he insists that others use his correct name -Fluffer; he simply refuses to do likewise.

It is my feeling that although I have been several different Avatars the RL citizen behind them has remained the same, a citizen who is concerned about America’s future; concerned that citizens who can not follow procedure influence our Foreign Policy. Although there are citizens who I constantly harpoon -like every chance I get, and maybe I am dreaming; but I feel I am a fairly consist pain in the tookus to all.

Growing up in the late 1950’s and early 1960’s, raised by a religious family who had lost one son to the war; a war which allowed another son to work on the motors of a very famous B-29. Being a child of free love and the son of a father who helped to win the war, I was a ‘leather wearing no good’ hoodlum; I think they’re called ‘gastas’ now...anyway.

My family is military from way back, not the West Point kind; but the kind where young farm raised men volunteered for two war -who volunteered for the Marines at the drop of a hat. Bringing this all up is because a RL organisation, The Joint POW/MIA Accounting Command, deserves praising. This command works miracles bringing home the remains of fallen soldiers, even those who fell 70 years ago; for my grandmother who never forgave him and the uncle I never knew…

It took a generation, but my uncle, thanks to JAPAC, now actually lies peacefully in his grave. What makes me the saddest is that my grandmother -his mother- was the only one who knew he hadn’t really come home. Always Remember!
