Training

Every few days, the entire EITC First Division gathers for training. During training, all soldiers will go over the basic fundamentals of fighting, learning certain orders from the drill sergeants, and occasionally practice in simulated battle sequences. The training session is usually held on the beach of Rumrunner's Isle, but may sometimes change. All training is run by Lord Johnny Coaleaston. If you are in the division, you are required to come to training when online, unless a reasonable excuse is at hand. We ask that all soldiers come to training with their musket/bayonet, any dagger or sabre, and proper uniforms. For more info on training, click the link below:

The EITC First Division Navy

After a couple SvS battles won, Lord Johnny Coaleaston has decided the division should also have a fleet, as more and more battles are currently being fought at sea. If you are in the division you do keep your current rank, but there are seperate ranks for the navy. That being so, Lord Coaleaston would act like the Admiral of the Fleet, and Lord Jeremiah Garland would act as the Vice Admiral, and General Captain Josh would act as a Third in Command, or Admiral. Squad Leaders would be ship captains, and their squads would work on board the ships as gunners or repair men. If, and only if you are a squad leader, you may enlist your ship in the fleet. There is a flag ship, in which the First, Second, and Third in command act on. The crew of that ship would be made up of the medical squad, as no other squads would be available. The medical squad in this case would fire guns, but also repair the ship if needed. The flag ship would skirt the main battle, and act as a rescue ship if any other ship is in need.

About the Commanders

Here is a little bit about some of the commanders of the division. If you are on the wikia and are in the division, please add your name, rank, guild, and a brief discription of your military background.

Lord Johnny Coaleaston

Rank: Field Marshall, founder

Guild: EITC First Division; Guildmaster

Military Background: One of the few Irish members of the EITC, Coaleaston may be young, but is able to lead an army valiantly. As a young trainee in the Caribbean, Coaleaston graduated from the EITC Military Academy with high honors, and was immediatly an instint war hero in the First Battle of Kingshead. After being awarded the Noteworthy Bravery Pin and Companion Medal of Honor for his deeds, Coaleaston was discovered by Lord Billy Hullbatten. He became Hullbatten's aide, and was also promoted to lieutenant colonel by Lord Marshal Harrington himself. After graduating from the EITC Officer Academy, Coaleaston was made commander of Fort Charles, one of the EITC's most vital bases. In the months that followed, he was also made an official EITC lord, all at the age of forteen!

Today, Coaleaston is the primary founder and Field Marshall of the EITC First Division. He founded the military division after successfully invading and conquering Guines. He is always loyal to his colleagues, never willing to back down in a fight, and always takes orders without hesitation. One sign of his bravery and honor is the fact that he prefers to lead his soldiers on foot, rather than on horseback like most generals and lords. He is natural-born leader, and directs his soldiers with ease.

Lord Jeremiah Garland

Rank: General, founder

Guild: Beckett's Elites; Officer

Military Background: Born in England, Garland enlisted in the British Royal Navy at a young age. He graduated from EITC Military Academy at the top of his class, and immediatly enlisted as a British Marine. After spending a few years fighting in Spain, Morocco, and South Africa, Garland returned to the Caribbean, where he joined the Co. Empire. During that time, he was made a general of the Co. Empire army, and was a vital figure in the EITC Civil War. When the war was over, he was given a Medal of Honour and made a decorated war hero for his loyalty and bravery.

Today, he is in East India Officers as an officer. He is one of the two founders (along with friend and colleague Johnny Coaleaston) to be founders of the EITC First Division. He is the brigadier general of the First Brigade, the more prominent of the two brigades. Garland's weapon of choice is the officer's pistol, which he keeps loaded and at the ready for a quick draw at his belt. While not to aggresive on the battlefield, Garland shows excellent qualities of a general. He is a mastermind of strategy and statistics, and will always help lead his soldiers to victory. His son, Sven Daggersteel, is lieutenant of the First Squad, First Brigade.
