Today, he distributed the batches and posted the rules and regulations on a large notice board with pins.

He also posted class schedules, outside the regular Baymard class schedules and field training schedules....As well as the punishments for violating each law.

Once he was done, he closed the board with a glass frame, so that no one would dirty the board or the paper.

He placed all the boards along side each other and stepped away. The boards were as wide as 6 chalkboards joint together.

The 1st board showed clear white parchment papers detailing the military rules and regulations, as well as punishment for each rule.

The 2nd, 3rd and 4th showed everyone’s name and rank arranged alphabetically, depending on their ranks... The 2nd showed those within the ’Enlisted Ranks’, the 3rd showed those who were ’Warrant officers’ and the 4th showed those who had ’Officer Ranks’.

The 5th board showed the latest military news and exam schedules for each rank.

And finally, the 6th board showed a gigantic map of the enter Military Fort. Landon had paid the system to create a detailed colorful map that even had the names of each building written down.

Also, in all buildings, he had put building maps that showed were each room was and what direction they had to go to get there.

Each floor was labeled floor G, A, B, C.. and so on.

.

All the new recruits, were each given their schedules and a mini-map of the extremely large military fort by their Major general’s and Captain’s.

There were about 27 large buildings in the estate..Landon wanted to make sure that they didn’t get lost easily while staying and studying here.

The recruits also received badge’s and safety pins each.

Landon had informed them that when they were on duty, or within the Fort or in training, they had to wear their badges. The badges had different colors and strips.

All Enlisted soldiers had green badges, but their stripes were different colors depending on your rank.

The Warrant officers wore blue badges and again had different strip colors as their ranks increased.

The Officer Ranks wore red badges, while Lucius as the highest authority within the fort, wore a silver badge.

They only had to pin one a day. They were given a total 6 badges, should incase they lose them.

Landon had also requested for department 4 of the construction industry, to weld Lockers, locks and keys for each soldier. As well as create proper obstacle courses for the soldiers.

As the day came to an end, some people were excited over their ranks and badges within the army, while others where pumped up about exploring the Fort.

Some of them didn’t even know that there were so many buildings within the fort. It was all new and exciting to them.

A 29 year old lady, was being led by a soldier on duty, to where Landon was standing.

"Is it time?"

"Yes my king"
