Level 2 Unit Structure
    The Christian Service Army Level 2 unit structure is specially designed to organize personnel from Level 2 groups into military style units.  The system has four main unit type catagories, each one created for a specific role.  The main one is the Army structure which most units and Level 2 personnel are catagorized under.  The other three systems belong to the Black-7 group BARC.  BARC handles vehicles, navigation, and recon for the C.A.A. and has four seperate rank and catagorizing systems, one for crews of each vehicle type.  Navy for water vehicles, Cavalry for ground vehicles, Air Force for flying vehicles, and the normal Army system for non-vehicle personnel.  All units share the same designations down to the point of Legion, within a Legion the make up of Legion Elements differs depending on what type of Legion it is.  The differences when they occur are listed in color.  Level 2 units are assigned to Sectors from which they are deployed when needed.  Only Level 2 groups utalize this type of unit structure and personnel classification.

Personnel and Unit Assignments

 
   C.A.A. units are made up of personnel from many
groups and sub groups.  Personnel can be assigned to more than one unit at a time as long as they can meet all the requirements of all the units they are a part of.  When this occurs and if the units belong to different parent groups, then the Trooper wears the group and unit tapes of the primary group and unit they are a part of.
 
    Units themselves can exist in multiple forms.  The most basic unit is the Sector itself.  The second type of unit is the Level 2 unit, which follows the above structure and reside at Sectors or Special Sectors when not deployed.  The final type of unit is the Special Unit, or Sector Based unit, they are not designated within the above system, but are assigned only to a Sector and are made up only of personnel from that Sector.

Special Unit Groupings

 
   These special unit groupings exist only for units that fall into the standard Level 2 unit structure shown above.  They generally do not apply to special units such as Sectors or Sector based units.
 
Task Forces
   Task forces consist of units with different assigned purposes and of different parents, working together and outside the bounds of their parent units.  Task Forces are usually temporary arrangements to provide support for specific operations.
 
Dettachements
    Dettachements are units who are assigned or deployed seperate from their parent.  Dettachements are used when only one unit and it's supbordinates are needed for a specific mission or task.  Sometimes Dettachements are assigned to work along side, but not neccesarily with, other C.A.A. units and groups.
 
Attachements
   Attachement is when a unit is assigned to work with another unit from a different parent for an extended period of time.  Attachements allow personnel and units to become "honorary" members of another unit for long periods of time.  Attached units are considered as an extension of whatever they are attached too, yet still retain their original unit identities and affiliations.
  
Reserve Units
   Reserve units are units that exist for personnel that are Commissioned in the C.A.A. but are only called upon when needed, or in times of emergency.  Reserve units are not required to be as active as normal units.  Reserve units stay dormant until called upon, but do train every so often to stay current and ready.
