Presidential Military Platforms Explored (Covers all 3 Candidates)

Presidential Military Plans: A Quick Look at The Presidential Hopefuls Platforms:
Ice_Freeze's Plan:
The Current Military would be kept in its basic structure. Some Updates would be made, More emphasis would be placed on Recruiting and on finding quality Officers to fill opening spots in the Military. The government would hand out more guns to the active troops to encourage their activity levels. The state run gun company would continue to be funded as normal. The state ticket company would also continue to be funded as normal.
On a face level, little would change. Behind the scenes, The president would be working more closely with the Minister of Defense, The Minister of Defense would be working more closely with the Division Commanders and the Division Commanders would be working more closely with their Platoon Leaders (This part only applies to Homeguard as Torchwood only has 1 Platoon). Weekly status reports would be requested from the Minister of Defense to gauge activity and weekly needs of the military.
Personal Note: This is one of the only plans I have seen that does not rely heavily on re-structuring the current military. It makes sense to me because when V2 drops, the Military will have to undergo a massive overhaul anyway and there is no point in restructuring twice, potentially with overlapping times (Depending on when V2 goes live). I feel it would be extremely disruptive to the Military and its efforts if in the middle of a change, V2 went live. Chaos would ensue and the military might totally break down.
Logan's Plan:
The Military would be fractured into 3 Divisions. Their names would more than likely be changed from current names to something else. (Torchwood would more than likely be retained as a name for one of the divisions) The 3 divisions of the proposed military would function similar to the current military model but there would be changes in leadership. In addition to this a “training corp” would be set up.
Personal Note: The idea of a training division or platoon is not a new on and has proven to be problematic in the fact that eSingapore does not get enough people to support a training corps being established. The idea was explored by Relorian and Mdeusa03 and resulted in the training documents being placed on the eSingapore national forums.
Atracurium's Plan:
Remove the Minister of Defense role all together. Placing it under the Minister of Security and renaming it Department of Defense. Existing structures would be scrapped. Units would be required to “rotate” to defend the homeland and to be deployed. Platoons would be renamed to Regiments and placed under a discipline level akin to the eUS Military (i.e. Having to seek Leaves of Absence, having to seek permission to move somewhere else to work a job or to miss training/deployments). Training would be mandatory and would involve the Regiment leaders freely choosing where to do their training.
Personal Note: Allowing Platoon leaders (or Regiment leaders) to choose where to do training is a bad idea that might cross the lines of neutrality in a more open fashion and draw attention from the super alliances onto eSingapore for either supporting or attacking an Alliances goals.

tf;dv (too fail; didn't vote) Hopefully you and your mohawk will not be able to oppress the proletariat of eSingapore much longer Duce Relorian.
"Allowing Platoon leaders (or Regiment leaders) to choose where to do training is a bad idea that might cross the lines of neutrality in a more open fashion and draw attention from the super alliances onto eSingapore for either supporting or attacking an Alliances goals."
You can`t be serious with this. Tell me one good reason why EDEN or PHOENIX would even dare to plan something against Singapore? Indonesia is only our neighbouring nation who is not our ally - tell why they would attack us?
And then: If we`re in Sol, are we neutral then? If we`ve allied with some other nations, do we still hold the status of "neutral nation"? We might`ve decided to stay away from PHOENIX-EDEN war, but that does not make us neutral.
chewie wants to use PEACE to invade Ireland... can we all plz agree that is a terrible plan!
@Erius: I guess in your role as Minister of Security you didn't know about the group in eIndo who already views eSingapore as a threat to eIndo due to our constant allowing of EDEN forces to use us as a travel hub. There are also plans for a Singapore PTO should the military plan get declined by Phoenix command.
If we start fighting MORE against either alliance it wont be long before eSingapore gets PTO'd by EDED or Invaded by eIndonesia.
(Both Alliances do have plans for eSingapore should it sway to either alliance unless I and others have been lied to on several occasions)
But I guess that doesnt concern you.
@Singaporean Enquirer: Nice to see you doing what you do best Amun, Trolling from an org because your a coward.
lol.
Keeping the same military won't work. We need to change it, and generally get better. Both Logan and Atra's plans require a boom in military activity. That really should be the main thing.
