My name is Jack Barnes.
And before you ask, yes I am related to James Barnes, I'm his Nephew.
Two years ago, I worked as a Prison Warden on the BPA Newgate, I have had weapons training and I am able to handle myself in a ground combat situation.
But I decided that It was much more profitable being a freelancer and I though more of a peaceful life would have been easier, not really, it was harder. Space is a cruel mistress.
Yet now I have decided that I need to serve my nation, this war is not going so well, and I believe that one man can make a big difference. I hope I can be that man.
I have had combat experience and I have flown many ships. I am capable of flying almost anything, though I do favour the heavy craft such as bombers and gunboats.
I am here to answer the call of our nation in its darkest hour. Lets beat down those who dare oppose us!
For the Kingdom of Bretonia I will give my life.
When contending with a monster, you'd be wise to give the devil his due.
. Jack Barnes, I have sent you the Bretonia Recruting Questionnaire and the Information Test. Send me back the answers on the questions via Personal Messanger (PM) and then we will speak again.
[font=Arial Narrow]Harry Montgomery strolled into the recruitment office that was the third out of six in city Magdelene at Cambridge Planet. He was quite tall and had a strong presence radiate of him. Very noticeable and a remember able face. His short, shaved black hair glistened in the light that shone above him. He undid his overcoat and pegged it on a nearby coat rack and reported into the recruitment desk. After being told to sit down and wait he thought to himself...
"Just say calm, it'll be fine, remember what you were practicing last night... Parents: father Neil and mother Kate. No siblings, private education until six teen years - further education at Trinity University. Degree in Engineering & Politics... Ah damn what else?"
He thought to himself with a face construed in concentration.
[color=#FFFF99]"No previous employment space-side, Only work as a police special constable planet-side. No criminal activity..."
He sighed with relief and then stood up and walked into the recruitment office due to being called for by the secretary.

After waiting for other prospective recruits to be invited one by one into various interview rooms, Markell Williams was getting quite tired. Just as he was about to doze off he was called to go to Room 101. Markell walked into the room he didn't feel it necessary to go in there and salute, stand at attention and such. The recruitment personnel were never impressed with that, they wanted facts and evidence.
"Why do you want to join the Forces, then?" barked a surly man from behind the desk, Markell hadn't even walked halfway across the room.
"My parents served in the BAF before I was born... Now that they are gone I want to continue the heroic work they- and so many others- did and are doing for our nation. Sir" Markell worried that the story sounded cliche, but he was genuinely passionate about joining. Everyday he read, watched and heard about increasing Kusari military action and was angered and worried.
"Have any qualifications?"
"A degree in Earth History, Sir. I studied on New London and New Berlin for a year too."
"Any combat experience?"
"I was an Officer Cadet at London, and also on Berlin."
The recruitment officer looked up for the first time since Markell had entered, perhaps interested at his training in Rheinland "Good, we'll be in contact with your university and we'll get back to you."
Markell walked out of the room feeling proud but apprehensive, and in dire need of a drink.
