United Nations Army Officer OCC

The United Nations Army, along with the United Nations Space Marines, are the grunts of the United Nations Armed Forces. Where the Marines serve aboard Unifed Space Forces vessels and Unified Forces Navy ships, the men and women of the Unified Forces Army protect the Unified Armed Forces interests and civilians on the ground. They are a regular sight around military checkposts, and are used for both military and civilian action. It is the Unified Forces Army that helps with forest fires, floods, and other natural disasters to assist the civilian populace.

The minimum starting age for a Unified Forces Army Officer is 22 (3 years of University, and one year of Officer Training School).


Pre-requisite requirements
PE 9. A high ME, PS, and PP are also preferred, but not necessary.

Military Occupational Speciality (M.O.S.)
Choose one M.O.S. before choosing the OCC Related Skills. THis is the area that the Army Soldier has specialised in.

Aircraft Pilot (12 months MOS training)
Prerequisites: PP 10
The Unified Forces Army does require air support, which the Unified Forces Air Force and Space-Air Force are sometimes unable to provide. As a result, support aircraft - attack and transport helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft - have been vital since the unification of the world's armies under one command.

Army Infantry Officers (3 months MOS training)
Prerequisites: PS 10, PE 10, Spd 10
Perhaps because of the nature of the beast, Infantry Officers run the Army. They are surprisingly flexible - an infantryman can be retrained to virtually any role, which is not always true of the reverse - and leads to a greater concern for the safety and welfare of the Army as a whole.
