Forced march

There should be an option that makes the soldiers override their other desires (drink, eat, sleep) so you can get them to where they are needed quickly. Of course there should be some happiness loss associated with this.

Something like a "NOW!" button? It would be useful, but might become too micro-managey.

Things like this have been suggested, and I can't wait for the entire military system to be overhauled.

As it stands, on duty military dwarves do their jobs when they feel like it if their job isn't very close to your fortress. A squad should be able to form up and march out together.
