Messieurs, mesdames,

New orders have, once again, been relayed to me in regards to the creation of a new unit.
Considering the following :
- Increasing traffic in Gallia, including unregistered elements,
- Increased Council activity around Gallic borders (see the Montmorency incident),
- The launch of a visa programme for visitors and foreign workers,
- The reform of the Royal Police into a new direction, whose integrity will need to be asserted,

His Majesty has decided to reinstate the old proven tradition of a Gendarmerie, which He has seen fit, in his mighty wisdom, to place into the care of the Marine.
For those less literate among you, the Gendarmerie is historically a military unit tasked with internal security, counter-terrorism and support of the Police where necessary.

And that's exactly what we are going to do. While the fight on the frontlines remains the MRG's top priority, the Montmorency incident has proven that we can no longer afford to scorn our duty on the homefront, and certainly not leave it at the sole hands of the GRP and their cutthroats.
Starting today, the Gendarmerie Nationale (GN) enters active service and will need volunteers.

GN'S PRIMARY OBJECTIVES

- Keeping the peace in the Kingdom. The King's television says that all is well in the Kingdom, and no trouble stirs. We will ensure that this is the case again before the people gets to know any different.
- Enforcing visa regulations. The Ministère de l'Intérieur expects several Sirians to be arriving in Gallia for various durations and reasons in the coming months. It will be our duty to make sure that any Sirian caught in Gallia has the right to be there.
In any other case, the gendarme is allowed to EITHER :
- Escort the trespasser out with or without a fine (no more than 5 million credits)
- OR Issue an exceptional visa to the trespasser (5 million credits, gets a pass JUST THIS ONCE. In that case, the gendarme shall mention the existence of a visa programme to the trespasser and direct him there. The trespasser will be made aware that the fine can be compensated by the consulat).
- OR Terminate the trespassing vessel.
The gendarme is entrusted to choose the response depending on the situation : ship type, affiliation, activity and, first and foremost, the level of cooperation displayed by the perpetrator. Sirians may be dumb brutes, but they are not to be shot on sight without a valid reason. GRAVE REPERCUSSIONS await those too trigger-happy among you. Exercise the full extent of your power as an agent of the Roi, but exercise restraint as well. Such is our way, and such differentiates us from those brutes.

- Visitor courtesy and assistance. Sirian visitors will be new to Gallia. If they know exactly where they must go, they are too well informed and must be harshly questioned as to the source of this information. Otherwise, visa holders are to be welcomed appropriately and provided directions whenever necessary. A level of polite superiority is expected of you, but courtesy as well.
- Police support. Provide help to our Police colleagues whenever necessary. Their new direction is young, they will need the help. And we will need assurances of their integrity and discipline. Report everything you see when on joint operations with the GRP.
- Escort missions. Gendarmes are to provide escorts to prisoner convoys, but also assist our corporations in safely ferrying goods across the house.
- Counter-terrorism. The Council and Maquis threats were never away for very long. They have sent us a message with the Montmorency incident : we will respond in kind. Gendarmes are expected to bear the brunt of anti-terrorism efforts within Gallia, which includes lightning strikes against known Conseillard positions, hostage rescue and counter-sabotage missions.

GN'S PROJECTED RESOURCES

- Due to the pressure on our shipbuilding capabilities and capital ships, the Gendarmerie will primarily field quick response units supported by Perilous-class corvettes, Triumph destroyers and a maximum of two Obstinate-class battlecruisers. Valor class ships are to be kept at the frontlines.
- Choice of fighter craft is left to each gendarme. Civilian crafts (Moonbeam, Sunbeam, Eclipse) are encouraged to avoid taxing the supply lines, but military light and heavy fighters are also accepted. Lynx-class craft have more of a place on the frontlines, but exceptions can be made.
- Naming convention is MRG|GN-Lastname for fighters and bombers. MRG|GN-[natural formation in French] is suggested for capital ships. Example : names of mountains, seas, rivers, lakes...


Please reply to this transmission if you're interesting in participating to GN operations, by writing down :
- Full name :
- Age :
- Current rank in MRG :
- Three sentences about your background :
- Do you want a setup bonus, and if yes, on which account :

If you're tired of the frontlines and wish to work closer to your home, this is the occasion you've been waiting for. You'll be put to good use once there, I assure you.
There may be less glory and riches to be earned in this unit than in the main fleet or 5G, but its missions are just as important. Serve well, and it will be worth your while. As a final note, the MRG is now able and ready to finance the construction of new vessels, at the rate of 5 millions per craft. Simply state that you need it in your transfer request above and you will be compensated.

This concludes today's briefing. I hope to see many volunteers.

Cordialement,
CC L'Herminier

// OORP PART //

The Gendarmerie nationale is an attempt at ensuring a strong lawful presence within Gallia itself. The idea is to promote activity there, create interaction with traders (and smugglers) and our visa holders (and CLANDESTINE IMMIGRANTS !!!!!). I'm also eager to give Gallic unlawfuls something to shoot at. Come for the pews, stay for the nice fat traders.
The Gendarmerie nationale IS NOT an attempt at replacing the GRP in any way. It will make use of the GRN ID as per the rules (and MRG ID when that comes) and is meant, just like its IRL counterpart, to act as support when the police can't do its job for any given reason. One of the key objectives of the GN is to encourage GRP peeps to log and interact with us. So we can look down on them with utter scorn and distrust.

Hope this works out and ends up fun for everyone involved.
Cheers !
Lana

Tiring just fending off Sirian criminals, and if I’m going to end up just shooting criminals it might as well be the ones that threaten my family and friends back at home. I am henceforth requesting a transfer to the Gendarmerie Nationale. A set up bonus is not necessary, I will be transferring along with my Sunbeam. A 2 million franc payment sent to MRG|Bleu.Trois for re-registering my ship's call-sign under the GN would be appreciated however

Destinataire: État-Major de la Marine Royale Gauloise
Sujet: Demande de transfert

Le 28 Novembre, 741 A.G.S.

Madame, Monsieur,
Our office has been asked to process and forward the following application for the Gendarmerie Royale on behalf of a service member stationed on the Cuirassé Montreuil:

Name:Ludovic Lefort

Current Rank: Maître Principal
Age: 39

Background: Maître Principal Ludovic Lefort is a veteran of the MRG. He served with distinction as a Royal Marine for almost two decades, enlisting immediately after finishing his baccalauréat. He suffered a leg wound during the initial assault on Planet Leeds, and was thus honorably discharged from the Marines. He was given the option of retiring, or retraining as a pilot - and his love for the Royaume drove him to choose the latter. Upon completing said training, he flew patrols in the auTauroute for six months, before requesting this transfer.
He is an unexperienced pilot, but a staunch, courageous individual and a good, if strict, leader of men.

It should be mentioned that the application comes with a reference letters from the CO of the 237th Royal Marines, and that his wound, while forcing a limp upon his gait, does not impede his duties as a pilot.

Sincèrement,
Martin Gaillard
Clerk in the service of Sa Majesté Le Roy, Cuirassé Montreuil
