This expansion is one of many projects envisioned by and under the direct supervision of General of the Army NXNW, designed to streamline and strengthen the USArmy's fighting capability.

The new 10th "Mountain" Division is led by DCO Colonel Ethan Strickland and DXO Major Batterytime, who were instrumental in the development and organization of this new Division.
Four Platoon leaders, 2Lt's Jerseygirldani, Thebrokenbox, LtDan676, and Aeros bring leadership experience to their new commands, and all four platoons are filling up fast with placements coming directly from the rolls of RECBN graduates.
RECBN has a susbstantial number of graduates awaiting placement, three platoons in various stages of training, and three more platoons recently cleared out and ready for fresh recruits. Another new Division is in development to accept these and future graduates of Recruit Battalion Training.

New Unit Senior Officer Lt Col Mjb Silent has revolutionized the applicant investigation process. The result has been to have met and exceeded goals in numbers of qualified placements to the Recruit Batallion (RECBN).
After successfully completing the 12-point Program, Recruits are awarded the rank of Private and placed into regular platoons.
With the formation of the new 10th "Mountain" Division and another new Division to come on line soon, the USArmy maintains its higher goals for recruitment.

By separating graduates of RECBN into this new Division we will be better able to gauge the long term effectiveness of RECBN and adjust that program accordingly. Some RECBN graduates will be placed to Platoons in other Divisions, likely based on previous USMilitary experience.
This effort is in accordance with General NXNW's mission to continue to develop and fine tune our USArmy's efficiency and effectiveness.
The proud soldiers of our 10th Division 2nd Platoon
We look forward to the success of the new 10th "Mountain" Division
and its part in the ongoing success of our USArmy.

O7 Nice work guys! v
10th FTW!
10th Mountain has a proud tradition of service and sacrifice, and is one of the most deployed units in the RL Army. They are located in Watertown, NY where I live and work with injured soldiers and civilians currently. There is a revolving door from here to Iraq and Afganistan. I am proud to say I served with them. Hold your head high if you have the chance to serve under that banner with them in E-rep!

5/1 rules
our Fifth Division has always been a step ahead, leading the way in organization and setting the example in motivation.
when I ran a platoon in the 5th, I could hardly keep up, and was real glad when an HQ job came up so I could slow down and breathe again!
damn straight, the whole Fifth Division rocks!
awesome article.
Army Times, FTW
Voted! Great way to serve your country.
Why you gotta make more work for S-2? Just kidding, bring us more applicants, we'll give you more qualified soldiers!
you must admit though that the 2nd divison "The Silent Division" is still the hardest hitting most badass division in this mans army.
