Once any issues are fixed or a new name is chosen and they wish to proceed to continue, their enlistment is marked as Approved through the enlistment management system. A S1 Clerk will then create their MILPAC and mark it as S1 Completed. Once this is done, the Processing Clerk Staff will then sort the application through the enlistment management tool and they are then handed off to RTC to do their boot camp.
 +
 
 +
In the event that the enlistee is about to be timed-out, the processing clerk staff will send a notice to the enlistee via the Welcome Letter PM. At the same time, they will tag the Senior Recruiter through the Application, and edit the Title of the thread to include the "!!!" tag. This will let Recruiters know of the impending time out, allowing them to get in touch with the potential enlistee to redirect them and guide them through the process.

Follow the SOP for Processing Enlistments at all times, this is here to be an easy reference for the text of the PM.

==== Step 1 - Check Welcome Letter PM for Response ====
 
The first step is to check Welcome Letter for responses. This is only done at Day 7. If they are responsive then make a note at the 7 day point on the tracker that they are still active in the PM. If there are no responses, move to Step 2.
 
 
==== Step 2 - Check Application for Response ====
 
 
The second step is to check Application for responses. This should be done as responses happen in the thread, however before timing-out an enlistment you must double-check to ensure there have been no responses. If no response, move to Step 3.
 
 
==== Step 3 - Time-Out the Enlistment ====
 
 
The next step is to time-out the enlistment. Do that as follows:
 
*In the enlistment application, reply with: Enlistment Timed Out - RRD processed.
 
*Find the recruit on the RRD Tracker and put in today's date under Status Date.
 
*Change the Status to Timed-Out/Denied.
 
*Go to the enlistment tool at https://7cav.us/enlistments and find them on the tool.
 
**Select their application on the right-hand side and then select the radio button marked Timed out/denied and click Submit.

This is the Document Release Information
Article Number: 7CAV-DR-031
Scope: Regimental Recruiting Department - Enlistment Processing
Version: Version 1.2
Effective Date: 01JAN2024
Last Modified Date: DDMMMYYYY
Approving Authority: RRD HQ
Point of Contact: RRD HQ


Enlistment Processing

The purpose of this SOP is to outline the process so that all members are aware of what happens once someone posts an application for enlistment.

Once the individual has submitted their application, IMO bot will post it. Once this is done, it gets handed off to a RRD Processing Clerk who sends a welcome letter. Processing Clerks check to ensure that the name is valid as outlined in SOP - RRD- Processing -002, that there is no recent VAC ban in the last five years, and that the person is not underaged based on there application information. Processing Clerks are given a 48-hour period to send the appropriate Welcome Letter and make first contact with the applicant. If there are issues with their application (ex: a name change) or anything of that nature, it is handled by the RRD processing clerk staff.

Once any issues are fixed or a new name is chosen and they wish to proceed to continue, their enlistment is marked as Approved through the enlistment management system. A S1 Clerk will then create their MILPAC and mark it as S1 Completed. Once this is done, the Processing Clerk Staff will then sort the application through the enlistment management tool and they are then handed off to RTC to do their boot camp.

In the event that the enlistee is about to be timed-out, the processing clerk staff will send a notice to the enlistee via the Welcome Letter PM. At the same time, they will tag the Senior Recruiter through the Application, and edit the Title of the thread to include the "!!!" tag. This will let Recruiters know of the impending time out, allowing them to get in touch with the potential enlistee to redirect them and guide them through the process.


Welcome Letters

The purpose of the RRD Welcome Letter SOP is to establish what the RRD Welcome letter is for and provide the text of the welcome letter. The RRD Welcome letter provides details on the time commitment expected after someone enlists. It dictates the attending 1 Section Practice a week, posting at least once a week on your assigned sections Roll Call thread, and information on how to join TeamSpeak and link your TS identity to your forums account after their MILPACs is created. Follow the SOP for Processing Enlistments at all times, this is here to be an easy reference for the text of the PM.


1st Battalion Welcome Letter - Arma 3

Hi <Lastname.Initial>,


Before we process your enlistment, there are several things we want to make sure you are aware of:


  • In an organization this size, we have to keep track of who is active and who isn't, so you are required to post in a weekly roll-call.
  • Realistic Names: We require all members to have realistic first and last names. Your name does not meet our requirements. Please select a new first/lastname.
  • Name Taken: The first name you have chosen is unavailable. Please select another first name using a different initial, i.e. instead of Jones.H, Jones.G. Alternatively, you can add a second name, i.e. Richard Henry Jones, which could be Jones.RH
  • Other Units: You cannot be in another FPS unit at the same time as you are a member in the 7th Cavalry Regiment. Please drop from the other unit and reply here with a screenshot of your change in status in the other clan.
  • Steam ID: You need to provide your Steam 64ID during this process. Please provide your Steam 64ID in this PM along with any response. You can find you Steam 64ID by pasting your Steam profile link in the lookup bar here.

If we do not get a response within 7 days, your enlistment will time out. You are welcome to enlist again at a later date.

A Name Change may be requested on the grounds that it does not meet naming conventions per SOP - RRD - Processing - 002, or it already taken. The 3rd optional paragraph 4 is only sent in the event that an applicant has indicated that they are already a member of another FPS organization.

Once someone has responded that they would like to continue or any issues have been cleared and they wish to continue a response will be sent.

Welcome Letter Responses

Thank You,

The Regimental Recruiting Team

Name Checking

The purpose of this is SOP is to document the process on how names are checked as a part of the enlistment processing procedure.

Name Taken

Checking names is time-intensive. You need to check each of the Rosters to ensure you don't miss any:

  • Go to the Past Members Milpacs Roster. Hit CTRL+F and input the last name of the individual. Write down the initials of everyone you find.
  • Repeat the process for Combat Roster, ELOA Roster, Wall of Honor, Arlington National Cemetery.

You will now have a list of all the initials associated with that last name that are taken. Reply in the Welcome Letter with the list of taken initials. Make sure to also offer them a middle name as an option.


Note: Names that contain 3 or more initials (e.g. Williams.JMR) will not be allowed. All usernames must contain either a single initial (Williams.J) or an optional second initial (Williams.JM).

Unrealistic/Inappropriate Names

Google the first and last name and ensure it conforms to our name standards as found here:

  • Names must include a realist forename and surname, not necessarily your real name.
  • Trooper may not choose (within the limits of common sense any of the following) as names
    • Historically important names
    • Actors
    • Musicians
    • Cartoon Names
    • Names of importance from Novels, Television, etc.
    • Religions names
  • Names cannot have any special characters or spaces in them as this causes problems with the MILPACs system.

Automatic Denial Processing

Processing Automatically Denied Enlistments

Enlistments will be automatically denied for the following reasons:

  • Ban on record within 5 years.
  • Under age.
