The Duncan Reforms

"Never advance relying on sheer military power alone."
- Sun Tzu, the Art of War

SOLUTION TO OUR CAF ISSUES:

Organization.

"Management of the many is the same as management of the few men: it is merely a question of Organization."
- Sun Tzu., The Art of War


Organization is what makes an army. It turns 100 strangers into a single body that moves, acts, and responds as one.

So how do we organize?


Organize the Platoons into Organizations, then supply the Orgs with a monthly minimum operating budget for emergencies. Then, when the time comes, assign each Platoon Leader Missions with an Objective to accomplish. Finally, provide the resources (CAD) to complete that Mission (more CAD could alawys be granted if needed). The Platoon Leaders can then decide who gets what, how much, and how often, as the Platoon Leaders knows better than anyone else who is who, and how the Platoon can best accomplish its Mission. The biggest advantage, though, is the ability to supply quickly, and reward appropriately.

The Benefits:

1. Economy


"One defends when his strength is inadaquate, he attacks when it is abundant"
- Sun Tzu, The Art of War
CAF members would work for their Platoon company, owned by the Platoon Org, and while at home:
- Produce CAF necessities like Weapons + Iron, Gifts + Diamonds, and Tickets + Oil
- Receive pay from their Platoon company based on length of Service (skill level = time of service)
- Donate materials to the CND and other platoons for stockpiling (emergencies)

Under the Duncan System, the CAF would have stockpiles during Wartime abroad, and constant low-cost production during Peace time at home, or while defending against an invasion. This could save the taxpayers thousands of CAF that could be used for Defense Systems, Hospitals, Health Care or Tax Cuts.


2. Mobility

CAF members would be instantly released from Work when a Move-Out Order is issued.
- Platoon Leaders (PLs), Captains or Generals would Release (Fire) CAF members the moment a Move-Out Order is issued
- PLs would issue Platoon Members the necessary supplies to begin completing the Mission
- being fired would be an instant alert to any CAF member that Orders have been issued, and to check them at once

Under the Duncan System, the CAF would never have to worry about waiting for Resignation or be dependent on Platoon Members being fired at home. While abroad, PLatoon members would be supplied anything they may need from the Organization. (Food, Supplies, Currency).

3. Management

"He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot will be victorious."
- Sun Tzu, The Art of War

CAF Officers (Platoon Leaders) would be rewarded for economically managing their Platoons, by controlling the left-overs from Mission Budgets and any Platoon Company profits. Platoon Leaders would use Surpluses to reward (i.e., extra supplies) members, stockpile for future missions, &so-on.
- Platoon Leaders (Capt'ns & Lieutenants [LTs]), the General, the MoD, and the PM would have control of the Platoon Organizations via Passwords
- PLs would spend only what is necessary to complete a Mission
- PLs would reward Platoon Members for their services/sacrifices (complements above)
- PLs would provide instant supplies to Platoon Members during emergencies
- PLs would be able effectively manage and organize their Platoons

Under the Duncan System, eCanadians could rest assured knowing that the CAF is an efficient, potent fighting froce capable of out-maneuvering, out-suppling, and out-organizing any enemy.
