During the World War II the industry and the manufacturing of weapons by the war production plants was a major enterprise and the need for a trained security increased exponentially. The on site security was needed to prevent theft, sabotage and espionage. The security companies even started training their own security staff which was well trained and their training in time was close of that the police got. Some companies even had their own private investigators among their number.
A CEO runs their own individual branch, therefore A General would command his/her own A Military or Company (Company depending on whether or not it is a Military company, one containing anywhere from 80 to up to 250 men).
The access to power was the direct result of the REA for farmers.
REA is the Rural Electrification Act (1936).
The REA was part of a program from President Frankling Delano Roosevelt designed to overcome the effects of the Depression years.
In 1935 only ten percent of isolated rural areas had electrical power.
The REA law granted long-term funding for farmers in the form of loans which were allowed to be given for states and territories to implant, improve and maintain rural electrification in the United States.
