Cascadia and big life update.

First off life changes.
I have been with my Girl Friend for almost 4 years now. We have been good friends sense the spring of 2002 where we met on a church group spring break trip to Greece.(both are parents worked for the US military in some capacity and we lived in Germany so its not as extravagant a trip as it may sound.)
I was a boy scout raised in a close modern approximation to Mayberry in eastern Washington state. While she was a punk with a purple Mohawk and smoked from Arizona. So we became fast friends, While ditching bible study to hang on the beach and eat seafood.
We stayed in touch over the years with a few e-mails, letters, a phone call or two and the odd visit. Tell Finally I got over the distance thing and we started dating. And I have been hard pressed to find a better time in my adult life, so last year I popped the question in a very unromantic way over dinner. She asked if I was sure, and then we both said yes.
So as of Tuesday April 17th we will both be shackled in the chains of marriage. And I couldn't be happier.

Now onto my Cascadia modern Imagination thing.

(This is a banner from a real radio show, and is not mine. So please don't sue me for my flight of fancy)


After a recent meeting with the Cascadian Military Department, learned that a earlier report on the structure of are Defense forces needs to be updated.
California decided not to fallow threw on the sale of the Zumwalt class destroy and Ticonderoga class cruiser do to increased activities of the Chinese Navy in the Taiwan straits. (See..PLA Navy Maneuvers off Penghu islands)
The littoral combat ship's are known as Frigates. And their are feelers out for more to increase the fleet from 4 to 10 ships. In the mean time the 3 Arleigh Burke destroyers in dock are being fitted and manned to join the two already in active service.
The rest of the Submarine fleet, Coast Guard and surface fleet remains as previously reported.
The Maritime Defense force land component consists of 2 Marine Commandos, a Navy Arms Men Brigade, (ship and station security) and a Navy Special warfare Diver Squadron.

The Cascadian Air Defense Corp corrections are this. There are only 2 C-17 Wings and 2 Kc-135 wings. But both c-17 and Kc-135 are losing a wing to be sold or used as parts for the remaining Wings. Bringing them down to once Wing each.
And the F-18 Hornet Fighter wing is being sold to Canada. To be replaced with modern Air Drones.

The Cascadian Defense Forces ground components have been restructured to 4 wings. The Reserve Division is made of comprised of all the One Independent infantry Battalion, One Independent Reserve Artillery Regiment, and three Reserve Battalions who are the 3rd battalion of the Active Defense Brigades.

Active Division is comprised of Defense Brigades and its support assists. The First Brigade is a Heavy Brigade comprised of 2 Heavy combined Battalions and a reserve Stryker battalion. the 2nd is a Mechanized Brigade comprised of one combined heavy Battalion. One active and one reserve Stryker Battalion. And the 3rd Mounted Rifle Brigade (Stryker) comprised of 2 active and one reserve battalion.

The Logistics Corp which hold all the medical, training, supply..etc.

And finally there is Reaction Force (Airborne/Air Assault).
Is comprised of the Ranger Corp.
Ranger Corp HQ company
Comprised of the Ranger Reconnaissance Operation Commando or RROC (Tier One operator types)
Ranger Support Battalion (LRRS company, MI company, Sapper company, Rigger company, Training company)
Ranger helicopter transportation Regiment
Ranger Artillery Battalion (2 ADA companies, 1 Heavy mortars company, 2 m114 Howitzer batteries)
Ranger transpiration ground battalion (trunks, light ground vehicles and Stryker's.
And the Ranger Regiment (2 battalions active 1 reserve, 4 Ranger companies and one Ranger weapons company each)

And if your still here I have a question. I will be getting some of the 28mm Infantry components soon and was wondering how I should paint them? I should I do them up in Muliti-cam? Or should I paint my Cascadian's up differently? If so what would you suggest?
