Reporting Units

The S1 Branch is responsible for all force structure, manpower, personnel, and administration requirements for the Regiment. The branch provides recommendations to command staff in resourcing current manpower requirements and in determining future organizational structure. S1 also advises and assists command staff in the management of personnel, personnel replacements, discipline, morale and welfare by developing personnel and administrative programs, policies, and procedures to support the commander's goals and objectives.

Mission

In the 7th Cavalry Gaming Regiment, S1 is similarly responsible for the administration of personnel. Material contributions are in record keeping, organization and policy. Unique to our virtual community, S1 also has responsibility for the visual representation of each trooper as a unique individual, through standards conformant avatars and signatures. S1 is divided into four sub-departments: MILPACS, Uniforms Shop, Signature Shop and Regimental Publishing Directorate
