No task was more challenging than uniting the many different military units and groups of Earth into functional Units.

From the most advanced cyber, psych and tech units to cavalry, spear and club wielding units. Endless traditions no one wanted to give up; to it all ranks, pensions, different languages and different doctrines. McElligott who was charged with that task once said. “It is like trying to complete a puzzle with 20,000 pieces and every piece wants to be the center piece.” (He added : “And then there is Stahl who pesters me every two hours about his Marine Corps. He is Navy now floats in space..”)

McElligott scrapped all commissions and instead had his staff prepare a list of all go from there and strip away what isn't uniform to all. This Approach earned him the Nickname “The Great Organizer”.

In 2093 the United Earth Congress announced the formation of United Earth Military and UE Navy, UE Space Force and UE Planet Guard were made official branches, the organization was far from done and it took many years after that to form a coherent military structure, with uniform training manuals and methods and an acceptable rank structure, pay grades and everything in between.

Eventually UE Army and UE Marines were added.

Still there were some unique compromises made to bring them all together.

When he was finally done and felt it was all a homogenous working military, it was not long and McElligott had to do the same again as the Union was founded.
