MRssss

NWC is becoming a true international club. As, Commandant of non english speaking officers school (Ecole Speciale Imperiale Militaire http://perso.wanadoo.fr/yann.lamezec/ec ... itaire.htm) I have a greek speaking officer to train.
Unfortunately,I don't speak this language. So I need urgently an officer who speaks Greek.

If you speak greek, please contact me.

This may be an odd question to ask, but how will an officer who speaks no English communicate with his opponents, superiors, the club administration etc.?

I have some officers in 2ème division de Cavalerie légère who speaks only french. They report directly to me in french and I translate with my bad english.
English is not really necessary to have fun in playing wargames.
The only way is to transfer these officers in an unit where at least one officer speaks their language as well english. If a problem occurs I speak for us in english but there was not for the moment.
Do you think that in the "Grande Armee" of 1812, all soldiers spoke french. Even today, in OTAN, all soldiers doesn't speak english, german,... but you have some officers who speaks one of these languages and translate.
