Soldiers of Crossman/Hierarchy
We have a fairly simple structure within the Soldiers of Crossman. Our Officers handle leadership of the group, with each of them being essentially equally-ranked. Of them, however, one is the Platoon Leader who acts as the tiebreaker in cases where a decision is split, and one acts as the Ambassador to other groups within the game. Additionally, Advisors also share in the Officer-level discussions, but do not have any authority granted them by that position alone. That said, some of them may hold additional ranks, such as the Commissar, who is responsible for troop morale and spreading our name, or the Drill Sergeant, who handles our recruits and ensures that they properly trained before joining our higher ranks.
Our main body is known as the Vanguard, and all full members are considered a part of it. From time to time, we employ specialized squads. Traditionally, Talon Squad has been our reconnaissance squad, while Theta Squad has been our tactical strike squad, though we have had a few other squads over the years. Dingo Squad, our newest, is made up of a small group of highly-coordinated individuals who engage in precise hits and reclamation. Most of these squads are put to use only when the need for them arises.
For our New Recruits, we place them in Boot Camp upon acceptance. While in Boot Camp, they are expected to prove themselves worthy of full membership, which does indeed take some time (usually a full mission or two). During their time, they will join the Vanguard on its missions, but will not have access to as many resources as the full members.
We also acknowledge one other autonomous unit of the SoC which we have taken to calling the Home Guard. These are members who prefer to stay in Darvall Heights, protecting our home suburb from the hordes and ferals. While the unit does have many members in it, any organization of the unit is handled in-game, and members of it are mostly left to themselves.
Current Leadership
Presently, our leadership is composed of four officers, each of whom essentially shares the burden equally. We currently have the following individuals serving:
Officers: Aichon, Bromhead, Cortonna, and Frank Burn
Advisors: John Spiro, Merrin P, Shadok, and Zod Rhombus
