"The only hope you have is to accept the fact that you're already dead. The sooner you accept that, the sooner you'll be able to function as a soldier is supposed to function: without mercy, without compassion, without remorse. All war depends upon it."

I. Overview

The Federal Military of The Federation of Ewa Beach can be divided into two subdivisions: the Federal Armed Forces (comprising the Federations' main military forces and their reserves), and the National Guard (comprising the Federations' strict homeland defense force). Intrinsically, preference is given to the Federal Armed Forces in terms of equipment and funding, though the nation's budget allocates over (USD)1 Trillion in military spending, providing enough fiscal support for the entirety of Ewa Beach's military options.

Senior Command Structure

The Federation has a strong tradition of civilian control of the military. While the President is the overall head of the military, the Federation Department of Defense (DoD), a federal executive department, is the principal organ by which military policy is carried out. The DOD is headed by the Secretary of Defense, who is a civilian and a member of the Cabinet, who also serves as the President's second-in-command of the military. To coordinate military action with diplomacy, the President has an advisory National Security Council headed by a National Security Advisor. Both the President and Secretary of Defense are advised by a six-member Joint Chiefs of Staff, which includes the head of each of the service branches, led by the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

All five branches are under the direction of the Department of Defense, except the Coast Guard, which was made an agency of the Department of Homeland Security. The Coast Guard may be transferred to the Department of the Navy by the President or Congress during a time of war. All five armed services are among the seven uniformed services of the Federation; the others are the Federation Public Health Service Commissioned Corps and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Commissioned Corps.

Major Military Facilities

Symbolically, the Federal Military answers to the Federal Government in Ewa City, which answers to the President in the symbolic capital of Resburg. Functionally, the major nerve center of the Federal Military is located in Ranava. The Federations Army Forces Command (FORSCOM), the chief center for military planning and aerospace defense is located in Ranava, as is Headquarters for the Department of the Navy and the Headquarters for the Department of the Air Force. The Headquarters for the Department of the Army is located in nearby Fort Bull.

Recently, The Federation of Ewa Beach and The Republik of Solm have formed a Joint Task Force. Designated Echo-Sierra Joint Task Force. It is comprised of 1,000,000 soldiers. Both combat and support. Ewa Beach has devoted 500,000 troops, and Solm has devoted 500,000 troops to the JTF. The ESJTF will be the main military force deployed when involved in a war. Ewa Beach and Solm will deploy their own militaries, but the Task Force will be sent out at the same time. There is a ESJTF Military Base in both nations. One in Fort Catt of Ewa Beach, and it is unknown where Solm has placed their ESJTF Military Base.

Citizenship for Service

All natural born, able-bodied male civilians must begin a compulsory service term with the Federal Armed Forces or the National Guard of no less than two years by no later than the age of 25. Following the completion of their two year mandatory service term, the men can opt to remain with their active service branch, become designated to the Reserve Corps of their respected branch (if applicable), transfer to the active or reserve National Guard, or withdraw from the military altogether. Such a structure is designed to award serving men with the status of citizenship in the US. All natural born men and women of the United States are automatically granted citizenship at birth. Both of the subdivisions of the Federal Military retain Reserve Corps - the Federal Armed Forces and the National Guard. The Reservists from the Federal Armed Forces and the National Guard fall into the same organizational structure as the active troop body does.

Matériel

The Federal Military uses a strategy called Simplistic Superiority in its military planning. A more commonly referred colloquial slogan would be "Strong by Force, Virtuous by Simplicity". This refers to the Federal Military's policy of using matériel that is easily transferable from one branch of the military to another. Every branch and subdivision of the Federal Military uses the same basic uniform structure, with color alterations made to order, and all military branches are equipped with the same weapons program, produced by Slevens Weapons & Munitions Company. The entirety of the Federal Military Field Weapons Arsenal contains only eleven different platforms: the KA-BAR Combat Knife, the M1A Model Bayonet, the M9 Military Pistol, the MP5 Military SMG, the M1A SOCOM II, the AA-12 Military Automatic Combat Shotgun, the MK19 Grenade Machine Gun, the M203 Grenade Launcher, and the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon. The Federal Military uses three classes of grenades: the AN-M18 Smoke Grenade, the M67 Fragmentation Grenade, and the M1 Incendiary Grenade.

Furthermore, all airmen, marines, and sailors make use of the Meals Ready to Eat, a series of ration kits used in the field, dependent on the environment and situation. All MRE Kits maintain the same basic composition:
-main course (entree)
-side dish
-dessert or snack (often commercial candy, fortified pastry, or HOOAH! Bar)
-crackers or bread
-spread of cheese, peanut butter, or jelly
-powdered beverage mix: fruit flavored drink, cocoa, instant coffee or tea, sport drink, or dairy shake.
-utensils (usually just a plastic spoon)
-flameless ration heater (FRH)
-beverage mixing bag
Accessory pack:
-xylitol chewing gum
-water-resistant matches
-napkin / toilet paper
-moist towelette
-seasoning; including salt, pepper, sugar, creamer, and/or Tabasco sauce

Personnel Grades and Decorations

The Federal Military uses a three-phase, twenty-five tier rank structure to denote personnel levels in the two subdivisions: the Federal Armed Forces, and the National Guard The three phases are unilateral across the board, and encompass the three levels of Ewa Beachian military personnel: Enlisted Personnel, Warrant Officers and Commissioned Officers. The enlisted personnel phase holds nine levels or grades, the warrant officer phase holds five rank levels, and the commissioned officer phase holds eleven rank levels. In both subdivisions, the Federal Military uses the same Military Decorations.

"This We'll Defend"

II. Red Army

The Ewacian Army, or the Red Army, is responsible for army operations within the Ewacian Armed Forces. The current size of the Army is over 45 million soldiers, both supply and combat. The Army maintains regular and reserve forces units at bases across Ewa Beach and throughout the world and it is also responsible for the training and equipping of the Ewacian National Guard (ENG), which is trained to be activated and folded into the regular force command infrastructure during times of national crisis or foreign invasion.

The primary mission of the Army is to "provide necessary forces and capabilities ... in support of the National Security and Defense Strategies." Control and operation is administered by the Department of the Army, one of the three military departments of the Department of Defense. The civilian head is the Secretary of the Army and the highest ranking military officer in the department is the Chief of Staff, unless the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff or Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff are Army officers.

Red Army Size

The Red Army maintains an active troop strength over 45,000,000 total, while the Marine Reserve Corps maintains a troop strength total of 13,000,000. Incorporating only the active troop corps of the Marine Corp, nearly 23,500,000 personnel fall into the category of Support Troops: soldiers whose primary occupation does not involve active combat. These soldiers may be involved in the Army Surveillance Corps, Army Missile Program, Army Medical Corps, the Army Research Corps, the Army Chaplain Corps, or the Army Supply and Engineering Corps. The remaining soldiers are considered Combat Troops: soldiers whose primary occupation involves active combat. These soldiers may be involved in variations of Infantry Divisions, Artillery Divisions, Armored Divisions, and Airborne Divisions. While this division is generally uniform in the Red Army, a further division is accounted for when considering the domestic and overseas deployment of Army personnel. As of October 2009, the Red Army has deployed soldiers only to Lintyland.

Uniforms

Red Army Structure

With a 22,000,000+ personnel strength level, the Red Army is broken down into six geographical commands that will line up with the six geographical Unified Combatant Commands (COCOM):
Army Central
Army North

Army East
Army West
Army Overseas

"Not self but country"

III. Red Navy

The Navy is one of the least important assets of the Federal Armed Forces. The Navy is tasked with few duties, the one main priority of the Navy is defending Cervian territorial waters, and her colonies. Most of the time, in an international crisis, the Navy will transport the Army. Although it will bombard the nation that we are invading. The Navy is one of the smallest forces in all of Cervian. The Navy is also one of the weakest in all of the branches of the Armed Forces. With under a thousand ships the Cervian Navy is weak.

The Cervian Coast Guard is a branch of the Navy. The Coast Guard is not tasked with any military duties, however, it is tasked with insuring the security of all Cervian ships. Insuring that they are all safe and that if something happens to them, that they can be saved by the Coast Guard. The Coast Guard is also charged with ensuring the domestic tranquility of Cervian territorial waters. They are charged with knowing the exact location of all ships in Cervian territorial waters and conducting traffic and allowing or denying ships to access Cervian territorial waters.

"Above All"

IV. Red Air Force

The Air Force is the third most important branch of all of the CervianArmed Forces. Conducting operations on both domestic and foreign soil, CAF (Cervian Air Force) is a major component in invading, defending, and intel-gathering. Notorious for its Fighter-Jet capabilities and young brave, and excellent, fighter pilots. Also renowned for its excellent bomber crews and planes. CAF is usually the second branch dispatched in Invasions as they usually bombard the enemy heavily before the Army and Marine landings.

CAF has a branch within itself: The Cervian Space Agency (CSA). CSA is one of the smallest and less advanced agencies in all of Cervia. CSA is this way because it is one of the least funded branches of Cervia. The government has absolutely no interest in space, the only use for satellites is for surveillance.

"The Few, The Proud"

V. Red Marine Corps

The Marine Corps of the Federation of Ewa Beach is the secondary body of ground troops implemented by the Federal Military, and is the second most strategically valuable branch of the Federal Armed Forces. As of October 2009, the Corp maintains a personnel total of over 8,000,000. It also maintains a Reserve Corps of over 2,000,000. The top military officer that operates exclusively for the Corp is known as the General of the Marine Corp, and is the top Marine strategist for the Marines. The General typically works in Resburg at the Headquarters for the Department of the Marine Corp. As of October 2009, the current General of the Marine Corp is Dimitri Vilkoy.

Marine Corp Size

The Marine Corp maintains an active troop strength over 8,000,000 total, while the Marine Reserve Corps maintains a troop strength total of 2,000,000. Incorporating only the active troop corps of the Marine Corp, nearly 6,500,000 personnel fall into the category of Support Troops: soldiers whose primary occupation does not involve active combat. These soldiers may be involved in the Marine Surveillance Corps, Marine Missile Program, Marine Medical Corps, the Marine Research Corps, the Marine Chaplain Corps, or the Marine Supply and Engineering Corps. The remaining marines are considered Combat Troops: soldiers whose primary occupation involves active combat. These soldiers may be involved in variations of Infantry Divisions, Artillery Divisions, Armored Divisions, and Airborne Divisions. While this division is generally uniform in the Marine Corp, a further division is accounted for when considering the domestic and overseas deployment of Marine personnel. As of October 2009, the Marine Corp has not deployed any soldiers overseas.

"Always Ready, Always There"

VI. National Guard

The National Guard of Cervia is a reserve military force composed of state National Guard militia members or units under federally recognized active or inactive armed force service for the Federation. The National Guard is a joint reserve component of the Federal Army and the Federal Air Force and maintains the Army National Guard of the Federation for the Army.

With the consent of state governors, members or units of state National Guard may be appointed or deployed as federally recognized armed force members in active or inactive service. If so recognized, they become part of the National Guard of the Federation. The National Guard of the Federation units or members may be called up for federal active duty in times of Congressionally-sanctioned war or national emergency. State National Guard may also be called up for federal service, with the consent of state governors, to repel invasion or suppress rebellion. It can enforce federal laws if the Federation or any of its states or territories are invaded or are in danger of invasion by a foreign nation, or if there is a rebellion or danger of a rebellion against the authority of the federal government. However unlike the Federal Army and other armed forces, the National Guard (under state status) cannot leave Cervian soil. The National Guard can be mobilized if the President is unable with the regular armed forces to execute the laws of the Federation. Because both state National Guard and the National Guard of the Federation relatively go hand-in-hand, they are both usually referred to as just National Guard.
