Bring back the Department of Defense?

Let me elaborate my point. When people come into Firestone, they like to have a diverse option of government occupations and some people might go outside of the standard police/fire. I think more can be added to DoD then just overseeing FNG, DHS, etc in the near future.

To add on, the Department of Defense isnā€™t simply a Classified DPS, they plan and coordinate attacks and defenses in case of an emergency and although this is unlikely to happen, it is better to be prepared for when it happens.

I feel that DoD could do more than overseeing departments/planning attacks, such as, exchanging affairs with other defense based departments in other states, and also working with the executive branch of the State of Firestone to provide necessary information that could potentially help them.

Yeah the attack part is completely out of reach.

That was all because of the administration, not the department itself. The duties are fine but how they are being handled is what created the disapproval rate to go up so much. If re-established, the governor will (hopefully) pick someone dedicated to serve as Secretary, and that is willing to make the department better.

This part is already and will be in effect if the Department of Defense is brought back.

I believe this could possibly happen along with the Department of State but this partially does happen already though I think they could go in more depthā€¦ Someone from the Department of State can correct me if Iā€™m wrong

The Department of Defense is similar to an advisory board and they cannot fully initiate a war without the Governor & the State Legislature.

@cherrylimons Thereā€™s your reply incase you havenā€™t seen it.

I too agree that the Department of Defense could be re-established with a better usage though this could be debatedā€¦ I believe itā€™ll play a bigger role and be more active if re-added.

Many things can be changed and we would be glad to work with you to see any problems youā€™ve seen to ensure that doesnā€™t happen again.

The National Guard is different from the Department of Defense.

I believe otherwiseā€¦ The Department of Public Safetyā€™s main job is to investigate wrong doings of departments under them while the Department of Defense would be doing different.

I believe many things can be used to avoid a bad reputation.

I believe the Department of Defense if re-established, itā€™ll have more of a usage and would be fully different though similar in some ways to the Department of Public Safety. The Department of Public Safety also doesnā€™t oversee all departments that would be under the Department of Defense.

The Department of Defense, if re-established would play a bigger role in the current situation weā€™re in for numerous reasons. The State Legislature would also be glad to work with you to counter some of the old problems that resulted in the shutdown of the Department of Defense.

the departments it would overseer do not need an overseering department, itā€™s not necessary for the state to function the state is fine without it

governor oversees fng.

dod would only be needed if we added another ā€œbranchā€ of military.

but NG is under the Army so we have no ā€œbranchesā€.

DoD would be cool for the air nat guard.

considering air national guard is under the air force.

but i dont see air guard ever coming as its more of a ā€œplace holderā€
so names arent taken.

dod is useless unless we expand more out of our military.

and expanding military makes us more of a country but firestone is an ā€œindependent entityā€ from the ā€œunionā€ i guess so. were already a country.

its weird.

i mean the NG is part of the Army and since we have the army there is no reason for us to not have other branches but we are a state so it would be weird but since we have the army which is a national branch we could have other but having other would mean we are a country but since we are not a country we can have other branch cause we have army ok im high af but i mean we COULD (for sure wont be accepted by fed) another branch
