Double Duty is regulated in the clan. Double Duty is monitored by the staff of the 501st. While double duty isn't banned in the clan, there are benefits that can only be applied to members that are only in the 501st.
Benefits- Members that choose to remain in the 501st promote faster than members on double duty.
- Only members actively participating as a member of the 501st (and the 501st only) are eligible to receive a Commission in the clan (Lieutenant and above). If a member has already earned a Commission prior to double duty they may keep their Commission assuming that they continue to meet their active duty requirements and double duty does not effect their ability to meet their responsibilities to the clan.
- In most cases members meeting the exact same qualifications if one is only in the 501st, the other is a double duty participant, the one solely in the 501st will usually receive the promotion.
- Bonus Merit (5 pts) will be added each week to any member that was in service only with the 501st for the entire week.
All members wanting to participate in double duty must get approval from a flag officer (Major or Above). Members starting a double duty must spend 1 month on reserves to prove they can meet active duty requirements. If they meet the requirement they may return to active duty. If they don't they may be asked to remain in the reserves, asked to drop double duty, May be reduced in rank, May be removed from the clan.
