Bretonian Armed Forces Recruitment Centre (iRP)

Jay took the clipboard and sat back to answer.

1. You are serving onboard a battleship and are ordered by your immediate superior officer to execute some captured Kusari prisoners of war. Do you obey? Explain your reasoning.

This is a tough question. I would first think to obey, since it is an order from my officer, but it does directly go against the laws of Bretonia. POWs are unarmed and already under control, and these people have been captured because they didn't want to fight to the death, so killing them would make me no better than what I'm fighting against. I don't think I could murder anyone in cold blood, and would have to accept the punishment for disobeying.

2. You are aware that your wingman has been secretly supplying BAF weaponary to Bretonian Privateers operating in Kusari. How would you respond to this information?

I would be disappointed in my wingman, but would do my duty and report this information to my commanding officer. I would not take any further action personally, as I haven't been given the order and the information might not be correct. The Privateers are not part of the Armed Forces and as such should not be using military hardware, as noble as their cause is, and there is a chance that smuggled weaponry could fall into the hands of the enemy.

3. Whilst escorting a BAF Gunboat you come under attack by a Kusari strike force of fighters and bombers. Your Commander orders you to retreat and save yourself, leaving the Gunboat at the mercy of the enemy. Would there be any circumstances in which you would disregard the order?

If I was not the only escort and force I was with had a chance of winning the confrontation, I would have major misgivings about leaving anyone to die or be captured. If I could see that the situation was hopeless I would of course follow the order. I would never expect this sort of order to be given unless the Commander could see that the situation was hopeless, so I can't see myself ever disregarding it. Another lost pilot would only make things worse.


Jay looked at his paper, thought "Well, it's honest even if it's not what they're looking for. I just hope they accept it and teach me what to do instead."

He stood up and handed the paper back to Commander Cromwell.
