STAND BY THAT BED, MAN ! NOW ! *whips and chains*
The Chief of Staff and Department of Defence would like to update all citizens and army on developments this week.
By popular demand, less poetry, more meat. Appreciate the feedback, screamers.
So this is in barrack-room tone.
Don't like it?
Talk to the suits. Or just listen. Translate. LOL

TG, Riprock, RDW.
You know what you've done.
I'm grateful for it.
Let's get it all rockin', shall we?
C.O.s, expect to hear from king-of-the-niners soon.
Bad Language
Sorry suits, we've been talking military for a few days, and I know you guys "don't get it " or
appreciate us for it.
Be patient. We only do poetry for breakfast.......
Intelligence
Wow. Great strides. Language skills coming on nicely soldiers.
Battle-watchers abound.
You learn something every day.
If you don't, you die.
Need tips?
Talk to C.O.s. or me. (in-forum, not in-game)
Groundhog Day
Don't say the word WARGAMES to me again.
When it can be done, it will be. Believe me. Every angle is being explored.
Do I look like a soldier who's happy not to rank? I'm ****ing itchin'.
No time for more of this **** lads.
Take it to the suits, and stop shooting yer mouths off in front of our visitors.
You voted your congress in, give 'em something to do. In a civilised fashion.
*stamps* "Unapproved by CoS"
Foreign Affairs.
Big thanks to the hard-working members of MoFa, especially Mr O'Shea. And to Darragh.
Much "suit" activity has been taking place, and the military are happy with the progress being
made with our neighbours, close and far..
Welcome to the strong Ambassadors in our new forum.
Great to see such accomplished and talented diplomats. We expect big things from these
relationships.
Our neutrality provides a safe haven for them to meet and greet each other too.
Outstanding work from all concerned. *salutes* USA, Hungary, Spain, Poland teams for their
engagement. *Waits others to arrive.*
Allegiance
Historical Info
Long Overdue
Old History Already
All Hail Brian Boru.
Salute please.
The uneasy peace between IVF and IDF is now fully ratified, discussed and negotiated thoroughly.
BB is not issuing commands, or mobilisations, and has ceased recruitment for the unrecognised force.
Any Toy Soldier on IRC or otherwise is neither endorsed nor approved by the High Command of IVF.
In these dark times, IVF is full dissolved and folded back into the loving Ulster Arms of the CoS of the IDF.
Take note of this citizens, I don't want to have to keep repeating myself. Neither does BB
He has patience. Mine's run out.
Don't make me tell you again that the IDF is the ONLY army here, endorsed, funded and
supported by the Government, and approved for mobilisation at home or overseas.
Regrettably, a failure to pledge allegiance by a former divisional Commanding Officer has led to
his dismissal on obvious grounds.
Any soldier BLATANTLY and OPENLY refusing to honour his Country, his President in Office, his M.o.D. and his Chief of Staff will not be provisioned, mobilised or included in IDF activities.
Not on IRISH taxpayers money. Never.
If there are changes of heart, I'm listening.
These are dark times, I tell you again. I want every Irish patriot and solider in the IDF.
Every last one that wishes to join.
But, your Government and your War Council will not tolerate disssent.
This is a ****ing army lads, not a tea-party.
So, we have a C.O. vacancy on the boards.
Any serving soldier who would like to be considered can PM me directly, in-forum please, NOT in-game. Your applications will be considered by War Council, and a decision will be made early next week.
A pledge will be required. No pledge? No job. S'easy, isn't it?
Bandsmen
Cool. Coming along nicely.
Get your rockin' a**es into the forum and get contributing to the IDF songbook, and help dear Manni in his video quest.
Tanks.
Good work from TG and gg.
More still to do.
Watch this space.
Seniles rejuvenated.
Muscles to burn.
THE BIG DEAL
I gave you a clue last time. Did you spot it?
Irish Rangers?
Irish (Gaelic)
Glaine ár gcroí
Neart ár ngéag
Agus beart de réir ár mbriathar
English (Translation)
(The cleanliness of our hearts)
(The strength of our limbs)
(And our commitment to our promise)
Planning for this divsion has been going on since the mists of e-Irish time and history, and we have had a few false starts.
All that is behind us now, thanks to the continued hard work of one man, since the Shannon Exercise, he's had **** all else to do. LOL.
The Commanding Officer, Colonel Nithraldur, *salutes* will be heading up the recruitment drive, and operational framework for this division.
Division 24. That's 24*7*365 lads.
'Sciathán Fianóglach an Airm' , which is translated as 'The Army Ranger Wing'.
The selection criteria is tough, as it should be.
Think you're hard enough? Good. Apply.
In-game to Nith, or In-forum to me.
After initial screening of CVs and battlescars.( I volunteer for the body-exam LMAO), you will get a thorough grilling by survey technique.
You pass? You pledge? Hell, you may even get paid!
*taps fingernails on keyboard, raises neatly-plucked eyebrows to MoTI, Brian Boru*
Ops framework?
You need to be active, available, mobile.
Ops orders and mobilisation methods will remain TopSecret, to all but High Command.
It includes an ARW seperate IRC channel, passworded, of course.
Topics will always list the outstanding orders for that moment.
Nith has also set up a seperate private forum just for the ARW, with only a couple of threads to
allow for a shorter log in time with maximum information.
The forum has a direct link to the IRC channel.
Specifics
The goal of this unit would be to be the ONLY effective 'elite' fighting group the Irish Defence Forces have. In order to qualify, people would have to qualify for the following criteria:
- have at least 12.00 strength
- have the rank of Captain, at least
- have an activity ratio of visiting eRepublik at least 1 time each day
- not being a Party President
- not being a congressman
- not being a Country President
- not owning a company on your effective eRepublik charachter
- being capable of connecting to a forum in order to make a weekly 'sign in'
- being capable of connecting to IRC, any server required
- willing to change personal avatar if needed, to one required by the IDF - ARW
Failing to meet these requirements will result in a denied application.
Failing to uphold these requirements after being accepted will result in an immediate dismissal from the IDF - ARW, they can however rejoin the regular IDF.
The IDF - ARW should be the first line of defense. They should also be the primary unit to be sent abroad. They should also be the primary unit to receive tank funding, if needed.
Home-guard Tanks having been already provisioned, of course.FOR THE IRISH CITZ.
The goal of the IDF - ARW is to be a high discipline unit, capable of responding within minimal time.
The selection is quite tough, comparable to the real life specifications, which could lead to the IDF - ARW having limited numbers, however quantity does not measure up to quality.
The IDF - ARW is to be supplied with the highest quality weapons at the state's disposal.
They are also to be supplied with highest quality tickets at the state's disposal. They are to have a 5 weapon and 2 ticket minimum stock at any given time.
Fancy a crack at that lads? Think you're hard enough?
See Nith. Quick.
Hierarchy, pay and other specifics will be disclosed to qualifying candidates only.
Finally
President Starks and my boss, AT* have graciously granted me leave.*salutes*
*strips off uniform*
*boots, ripped jeans, vintage U2 POP tour T Shirt on, hair shook out, clouda perfume, Sexy212*
eIrish know where I'm off, important oveseas mission. 2 clickin only til Tuesday.
Mail has to wait *sorry lads*
*tosses keys to DoD stores, and tanks, over shoulder, and jumps in the Hummer, bitch on fuel, this thing.*
TG, gg, Nith, C.O.s you're in charge.
DONT DRINK MY COFFEE -BRUTES
AT*, keep 'em in check.

Hear Hear!
I will be releasing an article in due time for more information.
Cheers!
"Hierarchy, pay and other specifics will be disclosed to qualifying candidates only."
So the IDF is changing from a purely volunteer force to having a paid division and the public don't get to see where their tax is going? Sounds abit fishy 2 me....
On the other hand a specialist unit like this getting off the ground is to be commended.
MoTI will have the call on pay.
Suit stuff, not boot SP
I'm still waiting to hear back from him.
Can't wait any longer.
Even I have a RL y'know.
Good luck in the elections.
Maybe you can put the sexy lawyers hat on and debate pay and conditions yourself?
You're good at the miltary stuff.
We all know that.
*mwah*
Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say...
One love
One life
When it's one need
In the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you baby if you
Don't care for it
Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's...
Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...
Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I got
We're one
But we're not the same
Well we
Hurt each other
Then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt
One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we're not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other
One...life
One
Now this is the way to get information across! 🙂 Enjoy your leave!
U2 are gonna rock Croke park!
Grainne rocks the IDF,
Nith rocks Ireland!
My eyes burn after reading all of that.
Apart from that well done! Though i was thinkin is the 12 str criteria a bit high?
Well you know best 😉 and keep up the good work !
Niall (The man with the real gun) 🙂
darragh did little bryan will verify that
me and bryan are running the FA departments
its a 2 man show
Wrong Binksy,
Darragh did plenty to help me. Regularly.Both in an official capacity, and as a conscience-prodder.
As Intelligence, it wasn't public domain. Obviously.
Nobody can verify that, other than Darragh and I ourselves.
This disagreement between the two gents does not extend to me.
Please don't do yourself a public disservice here, the assistance came at a time when you were RL unavailable. You wouldn't have known about it.
I think its our DOMESTIC affairs that need more diplomacy.
Rapido.
God Bless the IDF. Every meal is a banquet, every payday a fortune, every order like a sweet lass whispering love in your ear.
*sigh* Don't bother grainne. If they still aren't listening and that's their problem.
Any chance we can have a war game ? All this waiting around has forced my wellness to drop below 40 despite purchasing a house from Banc.
LETS RUIN THE IRISH ECONOMY, dont issue IEP,dont fix the exhange rate,national bankd dont make offer!!!
we dont need IEP,economy will use beer!!!
PLS elect some people with brain. Irish people wellness could be lower than now? There is world war and there isn active war in Ireland!!! There isn monetary policy. HELP, I NEED A GOVERNMENT!!!
My God Green Baby.Your calling yourselves the Óglaigh na hÉireann.
No doubt there will be some interesting developments in the near future. The whole of Ireland hopes for a fair and just solution to the current problems.If the transition of government goes smoothly and the IRA doesn't have too much fun.
