Greetings:
This is CPL Lechner of The United Federations Army. (I also hold the rank of CDR, of STARFLEET). This is a new Non-Affilaite concept. Why shouldnt the Army be emulated? Teh Army has been around alot longer than the Marines. And, as a ground force, they have a rich, and deep history. Americas first president, served inthe Army; known as the Colonial Melitia at that time. The all American hero, (and mine) was Gen. George Patton. Now there was a no BS General. He had a maor part in bringing the USA victory over the 2nd holocaust. Army may be ground forces, but put them on Mars, or some other world, and they will show you exactly, what the best & oldest historical service can do, for the United Federation of Planets. The Non-Affiliate of which emulates the Army; The United Federations Army, has a motto. "Beware the legions; for we are, MANY"...
