Welcome to Gaia! ::

Fort Crow, home of the Infantry.

Fort Crow boasts the largest military installation out of all armed forces departments it also is home to almost every special school in the Army. Here in Fort Crow there is a place called Hell's hill where Infantrymen, mortarmen, and combat medics are forged at the end of training soldiers must march 24 miles up hill not exceeding 4 hours until they reach a point called Honor Hill. Recruits are required to carry at least 80 pounds of gear in a rucksack and their individual weapon, ensuring only the strongest and most determined make it. On top of Honor's hill recruits begin the ritual of the Infantry by saluting the colors and watching reenactments of glorious battles the Army has fought in. Some of the schools that this Fort holds is Drill Sergeant, Sniper, Sapper, Air Assault and Airbourne, Combat Diver, and Karkin schools. This Fort is also home to the 143rd Heavy Infantry Combat Brigade, A detachment of the 14th Light Infantry Division, the 284th Air Assault Combat Brigade, the 294th Airbourne Brigade, the 17 and 22nd Field Artillery Brigade the 85th Mechanized Infantry Brigade, and the 1st and 3rd Karkin Battalion. This Fort contains 4 motorpools housing a total of 4000 Tanks and Armored Personel Carriers, and 1800 250mm Artillery Cannons. It also has approximately 7000 soldiers ready to fight on post and about 4000 living off post.

Within moments of receiving news of the attack General Kakashiee decided it would be best to mobilize the base as he could see war on the horizon. Many sudden changes happened almost within hours of the attack on BDM's ally. All soldiers we're called to their duty stations and we're to report with full combat gear. Trillions of rounds of ammunition was then distributed through out the base, each soldier was to have minimum combat load on their armor at all times and we're required to carry a 30 round magazine along with their weapon whenever they we're on base. Off base soldier's we're given barracks to live in and families we're given a free travel pass to go on a vacation away from Fort Crow. In a few days Fort Crow will reach Combat Threat Charlie the 3rd highest threat level Bravo being that an attack is imminent and Alpha being that the Fort is under attack. At motor pools, Abrham Tanks, Bradley Fighting Vehicles, MAXPRO's and MATV's are equipped and fitted for combat. Each motorpool is under 24/7 guard by at least a company sized element. Troops we're required to have NBC masks and the 3rd HAZMAT Battalion was also deployed encase of the event of NBC attack. Artillery units we're strategically placed through out the base, SAM turrent's we're also placed through out the Fort as well. Camoflauge netting was put over every building and fortification so satellite and aerial recon would be ineffective. The Special Forces Karkin Groups we're deployed about 40 clicks outside of the base. They blended in the civilian populace and we're only there to preform recon in force. C-130H's are now common a common sight flying to Fort Crow dropping off supplies and weapons. Several thousand SAM missiles we're dropped and immdieatly set up. Kakashiee began drawing out defensive lines, ambush locations, prioritizing CCAS and IDF locations, Strong points and weak points, critical locations, fall back locations, choke points, inaccessible routes, probable enemy air assault, airbourne landing locations counter attack plans, likely invasion routes. Everything, General Kakashiee was living up to his reputation and he would give the enemy that would dare attack him in his base, his home, his pride and joy. In the middle of Fort Crow, Kakashiee stood in his multi-cam uniform in the FCCOMHQ center. It was a building made with reinforced concerete narrow hallways. However below all that was the main power behind the Fort, it was the Command Center for Fort Crow, and in it had real time status updates for every unit in Fort Crow, Kakashiee would know when the first casualty went down and how long it took him to get to the nearest medical facility. Kakashiee sat in his chair and opened a Dr. Pepper.

Kakashiee put down his Dr. Pepper as soon as General Maddok entered the room he stood up and saluted as Maddok asked him the status of Fort Crow Kakashiee replied "The transition from a peace-time post to a war-time post only took us about 57 hours. All units are on alert, all FTX's have been cancelled since we don't want an entire battalion in the field for weeks without any quick way to resupply them. However the ranges are still open for marksman training and other types of tactics. I've ordered commanders to play War Games with a rival company, and as for Battalion and Brigade Commander's they've all been working with me. I've upped air defenses and if they enemy decide to fire a nuclear missile at us we can shoot it down with a Tomahawk Cruise Missile before it even gets near the Fort. If we need to mobilize the 284th or the 294th will be the first to touch down and secure a position. I've sent out the Karkin Special Forces into the city of Hutal which surrounds the Fort. Right now they're living amongst the local population and will continue to do so until the enemy arrives then they will feed me intelligence and fight dirty against the enemy. With the SAM missiles installed we can defend ourselves against air attacks. I truly believe that the fight for the Fort will be an Infantry fight. The enemy will have to close in for our CAS and IDF to remain ineffective however this is my Fort, and my soldier's live here they know every shortcut, street, building like the back of their hand. The enemy will have to fight for each foot they gain however we won't be purely defensive we'll attack the enemy whenever there's an opening. The further they are from the Fort the better." Kakashiee then pulled a chair for the General and sat down behind his desk as he took a sip from his Dr. Pepper he waited for his superior's feedback.
