Joseph smiled at the applicant as he told a not unfamiliar tale.

"I was under the impression that the Hessians would have moved your family to a secure location." he said coldly.
"The SCRA focuses on all of the houses not just Rheinland. Am I to take it that you wouldn't be willing to fight in Gallia or Liberty?"
He paused for a moment before continuing. "We can protect your family and bring them here but that raises the question, why should we?" he raised his hand to silence the recruit before he could say anything.
"What I mean is, why should we allow you to join the SCRA if you'd so readily leave the Hessians because, what, things got tough?"
He took a sharp breath.
"Now, what's to stop you from abandoning the SCRA if things became difficult and believe me, the SCRA is not for the faint of heart. We fight day in and day, almost always outnumbered and outgunned and yet we manage to prevail because we believe in what we do."
