Description:
The derived form 'skuruncasyn', alternative form 'skuruncahoro', means 'army'. The other alternative form 'mawacasyn' refers specifically to the New World Army and nothing else. Common doesn't have a short, separate word for 'navy', and a sea force would be specified if needed by adding the modifying term 'zora'. Common has little military-specific terminology, and tends to borrow regular terminology into the military domain rather than vice-versa as in other languages, because the New World Order did not spend more than a few decades of its history with serious military competition.
