Edgar belived that all of the problems that people are willing to fight for are the result of not having essential needs and a lack of understanding of others. Furthermore, man did not have the resources to provide these needs to every man, woman, and child on the planet. The only way to provide for everyone was through technology, or more specifically, through future technologies for global improvement.

In a letter home, Edgar outline his plan. There would be a series of Groups, each responsable for the development of specific technologies:

• Group-A : Food and agriculture development. Goal: Make lands more productive, develop methods to rid pests from field, to guarantee that no one goes hungry.
• Group-B : Medical. Goal: Erradicate diseases, develop new methodologies to deal with the various calamaties of the human condition.
• Group-C : Energy. Goal: Develop methods to provide electricity to every person on the earth.
• Group-D : Materials. Goal: Create new fabrics, wood products, and the like that will allow people to live in relative comfort and build safe, sturdy, structures.
• Group-E : Transportation. Goal: Develop new means of transportatin so that people can more readily travel and so that delivery of goods becomes a less expensive endeavor.
• Group-F : Goods for the Home. Goal: Put a radio in every dwelling so that people can understand the rest of the world, and develop a means of keeping food fresh for extended periods of time.
• Group-G : Industrial. Goal: Make production of goods less costly so that everyone can afford all the goods that they desire.

  Furthermore, neither FTGIC as a whole, nor any Group, shall work on projects or create technologies that are to be used in the destruction of human life. By concentrating on bettering the world, and minimizing technology used for war, perhaps the world could be peacefull and content.

  The day after writting this letter, Edgar was wounded while crossing No Man's Land. He laid in a blast crator for nearly an entire day, yelling for help, before a wayward plume of mustard gas settled in. The surviving member of Edgar's squad later commented that Edgar was terrified of both being alone, and of mustard gas.

  Edgar's familly acted upon his idea. By the end of WWI, FTGIC was created. The only additional aspect that the Edgar familly added was a board of directors as overseers of all the Groups. They believed that having a central point of controll over the Groups would allow coordinated efforts and more rapid developments.

  The Edgar family's complete controll of FTGIC was weakened during 1988. They decided that it would be benificial to take the top most managers of the different Groups and use them as Board members, thereby bringing expertise from each field.

  If it hadn't been for Private Josep Edgar's vision, the world would be a different place. We wouldn't have the benifit of the great products and technologies that FTGIC has created.

  The plans that FTGIC have for the world will make everyone's life better.
