Considering that several of our Cabinet members were part of the recent move (sadly, an unsuccessful move) to defend The Pacific, I see no reason why Cabinet members should not be allowed to join the army. Several of us have non-UN puppets so we can maintain our presence here whilst aiding an ally.To answer your question, RT: Currently, our region is the largest in the game. It also has the most stable government. Our government would not be stable now if we were uncapable of defending ourselves, as it was the act of defending ourselves against a hacker tyrant that brought most of the active nations in the region to the fore. However, many of our allies are not capable of defending themselves so readily or successfully. Much as the United States takes responsibilty to defend its weaker allies, we have the same responsibility. 50 nations doesn't make much of a difference on our homefront, but to our allies such a force could be crucial to their survival.
