-1 I don't see where the reason is in taking an LOA while having a command app up, like it makes no sense to me as to why out of all times you would have an LOA Now, i understand IRL shit, but if you knew ahead of time i don't see why you would put your app up now when there will be questions and concerns that i think people would like communicated in TS not only in the forums, i believe you are unprepared to become a BCMD and should either give it time to seek guidance from others who have held a command position be it a XO/CMD running the battalion or another past BCMD who has a good reputation of being able to run a battalion.
As far as your plans go, if you want officers to host more trainings and such, you are going to be taking away from the NCOs because as it is, 104th has a influx of officers compared to NCOs, when it comes to comparing that to other battalions, and your plan as a whole for officers of wanting them to lead the NCOs is quite literally the job of the officers, so you're just reiterating what their job is to us with no real original, new or interesting plans for them that would make me think anything is changing in regards to the officers, so there is no real base to your plan for officers since basically the entirety of what you want from them should already be a known standard for all officers, if your officers aren't doing what is expected of them, then that is a different story that is beyond me and up to you and the rest of the officers to figure out. As a whole though these plans are just lackluster and vague af and i don't believe you have any real plans to bring in regards to officer core.
In regards to NCOs now, You don't need requirements, you're saying that people are getting SGT and going through NCO ranks too fast, i have quite literally the easiest solution for you, stop promoting people so fast, if anything with requirements you will most definitely put a lot of NCOs in a position that they feel like they have to be promoted when they complete the requirements, in my opinion, set a universal requirement for all ranks, just because someone is a higher rank doesn't mean that they should do more, i believe that all ranks can do just as much as the rank below and above them, and that requirements when you make them increase per rank, it for starters takes the motivation away cause it starts to make playing feel like a job, and also, not only are you forcing someone to do more at a higher rank, but most of the things being put on them is also stuff that lower NCOs need to do and causes issues within the battalion with things such as event leads, patrols, trainings, etc. To add onto solving a influx of NCOs, set your TIG requirements so it already sets a time period that one has to wait to even be considered for promotion, that for one creates more loyal troopers who actually will work consistently and be active, and of course it'll show who will just wait till they hit that TIG requirement and then hope for promotion instead of doing things between that period of being promoted to the next rank and then waiting for their TIG requirement to come by. But to generalize everything again, same as your plans for the officer core, i believe these plans have been rushed simply to add onto your app.
As far as enlisted, i can't say i disagree with the plans, but quite literally i can dumb down all three of your plans for the rank structure into just making requirements for all of them quite literally in its most simple form that's all it is, which to me is not that impressive of a plan in regards to rank structure. Also wolfpack plan dumbed down is just requirements on paper once again.
Also me personally, i think Dire squad is useless if im being completely honest, its just oversaturating the battalion with a subunit that no one wants, put work in what people actually want, not what people don't.
And now that imat the end of the app, you're just basically trying to reinforce standards that should be in place already or just making requirements or lowering requirements, and to me quite simply, i just think, like i said no real thought went into these plans so with that being said i reinforce my -1 even more since i hold 104th near and dear to my heart and would like to see it succeed and not fail, regardless good luck with this and future endeavors
