Your Country needs YOU! again...

Ministry of Defence
Recruitment rates have fallen drastically in the UK paras and reserves, and I mean drastically. We desperately need troops, and I'm not going to lie and I don't care if foreign 'spies' read this, because for a country of our size we don't half punch below our weight. Sure the troops we do have our really well trained, equipped and strong but there just isn't enough of them.
So if you want to apply for the reserves, who stay at home and protect the UK, or for the paras, who travel and fight abroad protecting democracy and our allies, please do. For the reserves message Paddyohale. For the paras message Big Boy Bulley. Please be aware that reserves have to have a strength of 3 to join and paras need 4.
Intelligence Services
This country's intelligence services have long been dead. With the last director going inactive for a large period and personnel being banned or just going inactive we are at a disadvantage straight away on the international scene regarding everything from trade deals, to political takeovers to military actions.
So as Minister of Defence I have decided to get this up and started again. I am looking for a new head of MI6 as well as bog standard operatives to go deep behind enemy lines and infiltrate foreign and hostile governments. To apply for director message my account, widdows9000, on the UK forum as it is vital you're active on there.
But if you want to like Bond and if you speak foreign languages, want to serve your country and spice up your erep life then just message me on here. DO NOT POST ON HERE SAYING I WANT TO BE A SPY. You can discuss things on here but not let on you want to join or can speak foreign languages etc.
Please vote this up, this is vital.
Widdows9000,
Minister of Defence

I\'ve requested to be assigned to the reserves and I hope many others do too.
Good. Thanks. FOLLOW HIS EXAMPLE!!!
I PMd Paddy about enlisting in the reserves a few days ago. No response yet.
a very important fact you mention here. our defensive and intelligence capability is deteriorating. im really surprised that the commies found that out by themselves. we really need stronger forces. and i would like veery much to join our Armed forces, but since im still very young im not yet good enough, but i will train every day for that goal.
Anyone who speaks another language but is not wanting to be a spy contact myself of Skinny Bones Jones to be an ambassador.
I took the Queen\'s shilling (or £100 rather) some time ago but haven\'t received any orders yet.
Are we going to take advantage of this peaceful period to do some training?
What do you mean by training William?
Rayf, give it another day and then message Cheeseball or Dexter Jones as they are reserve COs.
Well, I\'m new so I guess it won\'t do any harm saying that I haven\'t received any formal training yet: all I have is lessons learnt from my mistakes when I went it alone on that Crusade against Turkey.
Training Exercises should be done on response time. They used to be and it was all in good fun.
William there\'s nothing to train you in. Everyone knows how to join a battle and if there is anything specific to do orders wise then you will be told how to execute those orders.
FD, to be honest training exercises are a bit pointless, they are intended to keep people on their toes but it doesn\'t. People won\'t log in more on the off chance they have a task to do.
Well, when we get recruits I\'d like to think we\'d at least tell them how to use a hospital: I managed to muck that up my first time.
Often people are told how to use a hospital when they receive their orders. That\'s how I do it. Your platoon leader should contact you soon after you join to get your inventory and get to know you at the same time, but when issuing orders I always explain all the technical details even if I think it\'s something that my platoon could work out for themselves.
I don\'t even know who my platoon commander is.
I\'ll be joining the reserves when I reach 3 strength. 6 days to go.
William I just realised you don\'t have access to the para forum, really sorry, anyway I\'ve just added you.
Your platoon leader is Malcovent, you\'re in C mate.
Nice one, thanks boss.
No problem soldier.
can someone message me and let me know if you can join the Locals and later join the paras, i\'m at 2.9 now, but i will not join the reserves if i can\'t change later.
ade
I\'m at 4.48 strength and sent Big Boy Bulley a pm with no response as yet
He\'ll respond soon Malta.
Ade, you can only be in one at a time but you can switch from one to the other so it is possible.
Joining the TA (Reserves), in 2 days.
Can I become a spy for you guys? for a price of coz..
you cant now i guess. The eminies is also looking here, and they now got the knowledge that you maybe become a spy.
Darkyojimbo, message me.
I was away most of the last two days, I\'ll process this weekend\'s applications later today.
i wantz to be a spiez coz i lyk blowing teh evil ppl up.
I;m quite new to the game, can anyone explain how to either join a platoon or the reserves ?
Message paddyohale to join the reserves but you need 3 strength and then to join the paras you need to message big boy bulley but you need 4 strength.
we should have battle games!!!!! I dunno how to do it though. Was just thinking of a random movie i saw recently
i wanted to join up in the belgian platoon, i even mailed paddyohale, never got answer, and creveroeland told me (they told him) you needed a strengh of 4, while i was over 3
atm i\'m mayor of antwerp so cant join up, but i\'ll prolly do after the next elections, by then i have over 4skill and want to try the paras
Battle games? lol! And we\'re not playing a game now? 😛
Is there a para forum? How do you get access? (I\'m all ready a paratrooper btw)
Soon as I get the strength up guys, i\'ll be on the ball. Thanks for the info widdow
Just messaged paddyohale now that Ive reached 3.0 strength
Can you be a paratrooper and work home at the same time?
