Experience:
GM TR3 Taylor-GM 4thKUO Colonel TayTay: I first joined the Galactic Marines back in August of 2017, I had an old friend of mine in the battalion and I wanted to join to see what Star Wars RP was all about. Within about a day I fell in love with the structure of the server and my battalion. So I stuck with it, I was first under 4th Regimental Leader Zeus, Oxen as Commander Keller, and Gene as Battalion Commander Bacara. I learned a lot my first run in GM. From training's in game, to leadership skills outside of the game. Gene had setup the battalion in such a way where the officers would lead and make sure everyone had their requirements for promotions, as well as Zeus and Oxen doing private training's, Simulations, and making sure we were well equipped for any situation that was thrown our way. I met Gene about 4 days after I joined the battalion. He was quite scary to me at first if i'm going to be completely honest. Then I got to know him, talk with him, train with him, and most importantly become his friend. Me and Gene were buds till the end. Gene taught me how to lead and become a great Senior NCO. He helped me whenever I needed it and would do a great job all around with his troops. From his attitude, respect for the battalion as an entity, and respect for his family the battalion. Gene taught us all to appreciate each other and to get past our differences. If there was ever an issue between anyone, it was squashed faster than it arose.
Then Gene moved up to Attack Reg and we all cried, But none to fear our boy Oxen is here.
I served under Oxen (Bacara) and Matra (Keller) in the Galactic Marines. Oxen is one of my best friends. he is the father I always wanted. He would tell you the truth to your face and then on how he thought you should improve upon it. I learned to fight for my troops under Oxen. I learned who I was as a leader under Oxen. And I learned what I wanted to strive for under Oxen. Oxen was one of our most active Bacaras, he continued to prepare us for events, get us trained up and eventually take his position. Which is one of the most important things he taught us. "We are what they grow beyond"-Yoda Oxen showed me how to be a friend but a leader first. I first joined Keller's Unit as the Warrant Officer of the battalion. In time I earned my position next to Matra and stood with him for about 2 months. Under Matra I learned great cooperation and communication within the battalion. I also learned to grow beyond my shortcomings and become a better leader. And yes I had my moments, we all do.
After the battalion was in a good position I stepped away from Garry's Mod for a decent 3 months or so. In that time I was doing a lot of things IRL and didn't have time for Garry's Mod.
But then I returned. After Returning Another Bacara had just been removed. And the leadership was in Turmoil. So I did what many others flat out refused. I used the tools I was given from my previous mentors and whipped the Galactic Marines into shape. This meant more tryouts, Dupes, Training's, GMACT's, discipline, and mentorship. The Officers drilled into the heads of our fellow Marines that stuff was going to get done and we were going to all do it together. And everyone was fine with it and welcome to the change.Before I did come back I also helped revamp the master docs for the Galactic Marines. This is something I have a lot of experience in and love doing for the battalion.
Snadvich then saw that I was fit to become Keller and promoted me to Keller & Wynter to XO because he needed the extra help running the battalion.
As Keller I have started working on a new Keller's Unit Tryout dupe, as well as working on many more dupes and training's for the Galactic Marines.
As Keller I have started work on the Keller’s Unit Tryout dupe that is almost completed, I have remade all of the Galactic Marine Advanced Combat Training & Tactics Dupes. And helped develop other trainings and simulations. We now also have a road map on where we want to be in a certain time period. If I do get Bacara Keller’s Unit will NOT be left in the dust as it has been with the past few Keller’s. I would continue to help with anything the Keller needs and stepping in if he is not meeting the battalions standards. As well as making sure the Keller’s Unit members are active and quality.
Why should you become a Battalion Commander?:
I should become Battalion Commander Bacara for a few reasons, I have been in the battalion long enough to understand what needs to be done in order for the members of the battalion to be happy as well as maintaining a professional environment. I also understand the core values of the Galactic Marines and what we stand for. Additionally I have a very in depth plan on if I become Bacara. I would first and foremost let the battalion know how we should be perceived by the rest of the community and how we would achieve that. Secondly I would get with the officers and make sure everyone is on the same page on discipline and how we intend to hold up our core values as Galactic Marines. Then from there I would select a new Keller from which I have a wide range of amazing candidates I would choose from and then make sure they have everything they need to conduct themselves as Keller. Additionally I would make sure others are getting their promotion requirements completed and helping as needed and building training's and simulations that are not only enjoyable but also teach them something valuable that they can take that away from each training session. Finally, I will help not only my battalion's growth but also help others grow not just in game but them as people.
I am going to make Keller’s Unit an elite unit as they are supposed to be. I will make sure they are quality troopers and also are all active or they get booted. The Keller’s Unit will also be hosting trainings for the Galactic Marines to help improve the quality of the troopers.
Do you understand the lore of your battalion or squad?:
The Galactic Marines are lead by Jedi General Ki Adi Mundi and Clone Marshal Commander Bacara CC-1138. The Galactic Marines are the 4th Sector of the 21st Nova Corps. They are trained to fight on a variety of environments including and not limited to snow/sand storms, airborne illness', boarding and capturing enemy star ships, Bacara also demanded only the best from his men if they were not worthy he was known to have beaten them senseless. To become assigned to the Galactic Marines you would have to pass an ARC style training where the only way you would become a Galactic Marine was if you survived.
There is also a specialized unit inside of the Galactic Marines known as Keller's Unit(Not Officially) They were lead by Jedi General Kai Hudorra and Clone Commander Keller. Keller's Unit was well known for getting any mission done with precision and in a timely manner.

Estimate of how long you've played on Synergy Roleplay?:

Do you have a microphone?:
Yes
Where do you want your battalion or squad to be at the end of your term?:
I want the Galactic Marines to be stable, have active officers who do training's and are working to become the next Bacara/Keller. I also want the NCO's to be working for an officer rank and to overall have everyone in the battalion want to be there to help grow the battalion. Without ever losing sight of who we are, were, and will once become. I finally would like to have officers and commanders so well trained that if I went on LOA for something IRL there would be no issues and they would have the know how and tools to run the battalion without me. Not that will happen but that's where I want us to be.
I want Keller’s Unit to have at least 8 members not including Keller. And for them to all be active and of quality. I would also want them to actively doing trainings and mentoring the battalion to become higher quality troopers.
I would also like to improve where others have failed, I want our battalion to mostly be ran as a democracy. Every member of the battalion shall have a vote and majority shall rule. Even as Bacara I would have the same vote as a private. I want everyone in the battalion to have a say in big decisions.
Do you understand that if you go inactive that you will be removed from your position?:
Yes
Do you understand that your position has a three month term limit and you must reapply after three months to maintain your commander rank?:
Yes
