The uniformed services of Meckelnburgh, known officially as Their Royal Majesty's Services in Uniform, are the nine military and quasi-military services that commission officers in the United Kingdom of Meckelnburgh, consisting of the countries of Meckelnburgh proper, Branniboria, Salem and Iselande. The uniformed services are coextensive with the Meckelnburghish military as all members are trained in arms and may be deployed in combat. The tradition of placing certain professions in uniform in Meckelnburgh descends from the need to protect certain servicemembers, such as surveyors and medics, under the laws of war.

The Services in Uniform are not an organization themselves. As the functional components of the Ministry of Defense Affairs, the uniformed services prepare the readiness, security and functionality of Meckelnburgh's defense apparatus. This involves the commissioning and training of officers across the nine services, and preparing enlisted members for roles ranging from combat to specialized support functions.

Branches

The nine uniformed services, by order of precedence, are:

Their Royal Majesty's Services in Uniform consist of two organizations of services: regular branches, with both enlisted and commissioned personnel, and the commissioned corps, which retain only officers. The three commissioned corps provide services by professional expertise, as opposed to many boots-on-the-ground functions of the other six branches.

Royal Commissioned Corps of Signals

Pleiades-class (CIAG)

The Royal Commissioned Corps of Signals is the second most modern branch of the Meckelnburgh military and the first branch founded after Meckelnburgh was established in 1685 AN, in 1716 AN. The corps is focused on cybersecurity and signals intelligence. The corps commissions professionals in cybersecurity, data analytics, and information technology to safeguard Meckelnburgh's digital infrastructure, preventing cyber threats. The Royal Corps of Signals also operates Meckelnburgh's security vessels and reconnaissance aircraft.

The Royal Naval Medical Commissioned Corps is a unique branch of the Meckelnburgh military, focusing on public health and healthcare-related missions. The corps is made of professional medical staff from medical, scientific, psychiatric, veterinary and public health disciplines. The Public Health Service Corps is responsible for promoting public health, especially in disaster response or widespread medical emergencies, such as epidemics. It also operates the Rural Flying Ambulance program, providing transport to trauma centers from remote corners of Meckelnburgh.

Environmental Science Commissioned Corps

Lincoln-class (RAGOR)
NVF WP-240 Blizzard

The Environmental Science Commissioned Corps is a specialized component of the Meckelnburgh military responsible for environmental protection, weather forecasting and hydrographic surveying. The corps is made of experts in environmental science, ecology, geography, oceanography and natural resource management.

The corps s is responsible for addressing environmental threats, such as fisheries collapse, and is supplied with a fleet of pollution response vessels in case of environmental disasters on the water. As part of this function, the corps is responsible for the opening and closing of fisheries throughout the Kingdom. Along with the Royal Meckelnburgh Saeweard, it administers the nation's exclusive economic zone.

The corps is responsible for the Office of Coast Survey, the geographic mapping of the kingdom and its surrounding waters. It also manages the Bureau of Weather Forecasting, and is the weather agency of Meckelnburgh. As part of this effort, the Environmental Science Commissioned Corps also operates a set of NVF WP-240 Blizzard weather aircraft for in-the-sky weather observation.

In 1734 AN, as part of an expansion of the corps' program in Branniboria, the headquarters of the corps was moved from Boulonne in Brittnay to Tuft in Cumberland.
