USMC - US Marine Corps

Uncle Sam's Misguided Children. The few, the underequipped, the angry. Crackshots and crayon eaters to the last. My Ass Rides In Naval Equipment

USN - US Navy

The boat-dwelling, denim-wearing medical and engineering specialists assigned to do the jobs that require too much thinking to give to a Marine. Also naval gunfire.

  • BB-61 - The Mighty Iowa, 16" gun-armed battleship with a danger close distance of 1 mile. One nautical mile if firing bomblet
  • CA-148 - USS Newport News, the Grey Ghost on the East Coast. A Des-Moines class heavy cruiser, with 8" and 5" guns. Were pissed off with EGR for a while

USAF - US Air Force

The bronzed (okay, it's ingrained red clay dust) sky gods of the Air Force, here to survey the battlefield from on high and rearrange parts of it.

  • 21 TASS - MAJ Scatter's outfit, the 21st Tactical Air Support Squadron mostly fly OV-10 Broncos in the Airborne Forward Air Controller role.
  • THUNDERBOLT - LTCOL Studebaker-Mackenzie, in command of a formation of B-52 strategic bombers based out of Guam. Convinced that bombing accuracy is directly correlated with faith in The Lord Jesus.

SCAF - South Chelt Air Force

The brave if slightly undertrained pilots of the South Chelt Air Force. They'll probably drop. Somewhere.

  • BANDIT flight - usually flying A-1 Skyraiders. Endgame Red's ride-or-dies.
  • SEAGULL flight - usually flying A-1 Skyraiders. Some difficulty with concepts like East and West.

AVRN - Avon Valley River Nationalists

A loyal faction of the Chelt ground forces. Often US-equipped; or variable levels of training and morale.
