New Army Commendations!

The following are a list of new Commendations that certain individuals can bestow upon their troops! Recruiting Commendation {RCRT} - Awarded for each active recruit you bring into the corps. This is typically given after the recruit has been active in a squad for a month. This commendation may be awarded by the Commander of Training. Meritorious Commendation {MRT} - Awarded to those members whom not only obey the Code of Conduct and Vast Empire Axiom, but assist in enforcing them by reporting violations through official channels (chain of command) and also assist the administrators in resolving the violations without further incidents. This commendation may be awarded by the Prefect of the Army and Army Executive Officer. Resolute Commendation {RES} - Awarded for posting at least seven (7) quality story posts on the Army Comnet in a single reporting week (From Sunday to Saturday). Squad stories, platoon stories, army-wide campaigns, specialties, and chapter stories are tallied for this. Personal stories do not count. This commendation may be awarded by Company Commanders and above. Optimum Commendation {OPC} - This one exists for those in their first month of the VE. If they graduate basic training and obtain ten army story posts (same guidelines as for the Resolute Commendation) before the month is up, they achieve this award. For each set of ten qualifying posts made before the month ends, they obtain another of this commendation. For fairness, a month is always considerd thirty (30) days. This commendation may be awarded by Platoon Commanders and above.

Does that apply for when you join or get out of the academy?

If you read it....both. It applies to the very first 30 days after submitting the application.

I thought I might clarify a little more exactly what these "Commendations" are: Commendations are a step down from medals in terms of awards and could thus be called 'mini-medals' if so desired. There is no limit as to how many commendations you might earn and no effort is made to avoid duplicating a commendation you may have already earned. While promotions and medals are typically "on hold" during competitions such as the just-ran HSC, commendations are not. If you make the requirements for one, you just might find yourself awarded one. One should also note the following: - It his highly suggested to add a note in your weekly report that you qualify for a commendation in order to ensure we do not accidentally overlook your accomplishment.
Everyone starts with zero (as in zip, nada, none) commendations at this point with only two exceptions. If you believe you may qualify for the Newcomer's Commendation, please (after confirming yourself) let command know via comnet PM and they will retroactively award that commendation after doublechecking (links help here). Also, if you have a recruiting medal, you automatically switch that out for an equivalent number of recruiting commendations (ie the Order of Thrawn is converted to 10 recruiting commendations which is abbreviated by {RCRTx10}). If you believe you recruited more than your medal amount or have recruited less than five, please send a comnet PM about that as well to command and they will confirm if you have earned the commendation (those with roster access can see more recruits listed).

NOTE: The three recruiting medals have not been removed. The Recruiting Commendation has just been added on - it's not replacing anything.
