Basic Questions & StoryWhat do you think is the job of a Commander? The job of a commander is to: Plan, organise, lead and carry out orders. While also maintaining discipline and upholding the standards and values of USCM.
In CM, that relates to making sure the CMP is right and justified, leading an operation with an XO and CIC effectively: making callouts using TACMAPs to give marines an idea where they are and where they should be and probably allowing any schemes research has brewing and give them the green light and if needs be stepping into other departments duties if needed (Such as OB loading).
Why do you want to be a Commanding Officer? Why do I want to be CO? Dam Not going to lie I struggled with this question, I’ve kinda always looked up to COs like Greg lauffer and his essay speeches then COs like Windhealer and Juro who always made a round fun and wacky and well...difference. I don't want to be a carbon copy of these people nor emulate them I want be my own CO and really its just a long time goal of mine.
Provide a short story of your Commanding Officer.
ExperienceHow familiar are you with command positions? SL- lead the squad or die trying. Is how I generally like to run it I tend to leave OBs and CAS to people with better senses of judgement than I. Listen to CIC and scream to the rest to do what CIC says.
SO and XO birds of a feather really both command and run marines depending on numbers the duties change accordingly.
While also making sure REQ requests are heard and working on a squad to squad basis.
Approximately how many hours do you have as Executive Officer (XO) at the time of writing this application? 40 hours
How familiar are you with Department Head positions? Played them all apart from CMO as well...CMO is boring (IMO)
I can do all of the ROs duties with my eyes closed- CMP is enforcing ML and SOP. CE runs engineering and loads the OB.
How familiar are you with Marine Law and Standard Operating Procedure? Yeah I’m pretty confident in ML and SOP that provosts wont become my acquaintances.
ScenariosWhen do you believe a Battlefield Execution should be used? I see BEs as an LRP result to LRP actions say for example: Someone is smashing your head against glass and nearly killing you and then preceding to do it to other people.
Or if someone is trying to incite mutiny right in front of you which is trying to destabilize command and the whole operation then I’d cap him.
Overall if you cant justify a BE then don’t do it, talk it out instead.
Under what circumstances do you believe it is legal to pardon a prisoner? Are they a good person? Are they a shitter? Was the crime dumb? Are they important to the operation? (Critical personnel)
Pardoning is special by nature since only a CO can do it, not a XO, or aCO only the CO making it a special.
But as always context would matter when ever it came down to a decision of pardoning ones crimes, crimes like DASO and DTGP, I’d probably do if I knew the person wasn’t gonna recommit the same crime and get me arrested too.
Example: An engineer has broken into the med bay, for a Wey-med plus, bringing it onto the DS and hacking it, and a MP has decided to arrest this man for doing DTGP and trespassing and CMO has taken an issue with it. (The engineer probably should of asked first) and as such the engineer feels this is an injustice and has asked me to pardon him.
It’s early in the OP and he’s from say….bravo squad and he is needed to build the FOB (mission critical- IMO) I’d probably pardon him because there’s another wey med plus on the ship and the squad medics need it to keep supplies and this’d most likely be the only instance of it or to make this a much simpler process I could simply turn this into a NJP instead of jail time.
