[Emsworth]

I call the hearing on Ebowed',s nomination as Secretary of Defense and Security to order.

[Colin]

How would you describe your knowledge of military affairs? What do you believe the military should do to become a better fighting force? Did you agree with the expansion of the Atlasian Army by two divisions?

[Ebowed]

How would you describe your knowledge of military affairs?

Although my experience with military affairs has been minimal throughout my time in Atlasia, I believe my knowledge of it is excellent.  I consider myself to be a bit of a freelance expert in the field.  I've devoted much time to researching military tactics and general military history.  And, in order to prepare for this Cabinet position, I have furthered my studying of the foreign affairs of Atlasia.

What do you believe the military should do to become a better fighting force?

Our military needs to be smarter, more tactile in its actions.  I support greater funding for military hardware, but I also support research exploring the possibilities to see what would make our troops more flexible.

Did you agree with the expansion of the Atlasian Army by two divisions?

Yes.  I believe we must do whatever it takes to make our Army stronger.  The Army must be prepared for anything.  This expansion of the army was a step in the right direction for making Atlasia safer.
