=== Military ===

The Military is the combination of the various United States armed forces. The Navy has almost no part in the conflict in the Zone, most of their forces tied up in a blockade of the US against aggression from the rest of the world. The Air Force provides close air support for some operations, though the forces trapped in the Zone by the blockade find it difficult to get that help. Most of the Military is now made of draftees, and has little real training. Morale can be a real problem. Military units are reliable and tested, and though they lack advanced and experimental equipment, they have the best and most plentiful armor.

:Major subfactions of the Military include:

:'''Remnants''' - Some national guard units were trapped in the Zone by the Event. Standing orders are not to let anyone in or out, and that includes the Remnants. They tend to have two big problems - first, the Muties see them as targets, and so they suffer a lot of attacks. Second, they have little way to resupply except to beg with the military on the outside. Most are no longer actually in the military, having been dismissed the service at the same time they were abandoned.

:'''Border Patrols''' - These portions of the military are tasked with patrolling the edges of the zone. They're often forced into conflict with people that are trying to escape the Zone illegally. As such, they're extremely unpopular with the survivors, despite some units efforts to bring humanitarian aid into the Zone.
