Sly11[Admin] Posted July 13, 2025 Report Posted July 13, 2025 Greetings all During a recent post by members a discussion sparked about our current Field Training Exercise program, This in turn spurred on a conversation in our staff thread. Looking at the 6 year now running forum, we took some of the comments from the Face book group discussion onboard and have decided to re lunch this program under a new name. Not only is it a name change, but along with it comes a refresh. It gives me great pleasure to introduce you to this improved program Trooper Missions and Deployment or TMD for short. This name change felt fitting for our Detachment as we are the troops, infantry or army of the empire if you will. When out trooping you are indeed deployed and on a mission to capture smiles, raise charity funds and awareness or simply make someone’s day. The new Forum sections are now live, and all the existing posts from the last 6 years have been transferred over, nothing changes with applications, but we have introduced a new and improved Side bar badge which I am sure everyone will agree looks much better than our current shield with number. Simply continue to post your trooping counts in the new threads, you do not need to re add you old posts. All new applications will automatically get the new badge, and all existing milestone achievers converted over to the new badges. This is a win for everyone who has or will participate in the program But wait, there is more We are also introducing a “Letter of Commendation” awarded to all passing the Trooper mission milestones. For those already with Milestone banners, you simply need to request your Letter of Commendation via the request thread in the revitalised section. Please only request your most current deployment achievement. This may take us some time to facilitate the many troopers with achievements, but there are plans to try and automate this in the near future. We expect many will want to receive their letter, so your patience will be greatly appreciated. New threads for tracking your milestones, requesting a milestone banner, and requesting your letter of commendation if you already have achieved a milestone are below. Please start using these, as the old system is now closed. I would like to thank all the staff that took part in the discussions, and those who were direct contributors to making these new sections and updates, and entertained the ideas of change. These are always a group effort Go check it out. 4 Quote
