Deployment Application

[whatnowchief]

Hello! Fairly new to the forums and learning to navigate. I have a nearly completed spartan made from vac form, eva foam, and aluminum. I was wondering when my process is complete, where do I go to apply for deployment? And how do I get in touch with my local Regiment if I'm located in Mississippi of the United States?

Also the picture below is the completed costume minus a repaint and new thighs I'm currently in the process of making.

As Sweed mentioned, Deployment is an optional process that is reserved for members of a Regiment.

For Clarity's sake, here in the 405th we have several levels of voluntary membership.

Just by registering a Forum account you are considered a 405th Member.

Once you have been active on the Forums for over 90 Days and have made 50 constructive posts you are eligible to join your local Regiment, which is a Regional Sub-Unit that organizes in person convention, community event, and charity appearances. A costume is not required to join your local Regiment and work with them at events. You do not even have to join your local Regiment to attend an event, you just have to get clearance from the local Regiment Command Staff to attend, which is done by just posting in the event thread you are interested in attending.

Once you have joined your local Regiment and completed a costume, you are eligible to go through the Deployment Program, where your costume is awarded one of three Tiers based on Construction, fit, and accuracy, and you are awarded your unique Division Identity Number, a number that tracks you through this Program and in the 405th itself.
