Recon Unit

''We are the pathfinders. No one comes into or out of our area of operations without us knowing about it. Addressing threats is important, sure, but finding resources and mapping areas is our brainchild for the New Responders. Keeping an eye on the rest of Appalachia? We've got it covered. A light step, a handy weapon, and a sharp wit will ensure your prolonged service with us....You ready?''

Current Day
The formation of the Recon Unit came from the need to initially secure resources for the New Responders shortly after Reclamation Day. Food, Water, Weapons, Ammo, Chems etc. are resources that Recon sets out to find. Whether it's to stock up the food larders for incoming refugees or even gathering ammo to secure locations in the future. Recon finds a way to do it efficiently, quietly and with precise calculation. Other than following the chain of command, members of the Recon Unit may take it upon themselves to gather resources, map locations or even purge locations of threats such as Super Mutants and Scorched.

Currently led by Chief Tormund McCoy, the men and women of Recon continuously demonstrate their prowess in information gathering, intelligence distribution, and preemptive area management. The Firebreathers might be on the front line, but they do so knowing that Recon has them covered. The two units work well together, often with a single member of Recon embedded with a Firebreather squad for long-term missions.

Notable for their communications array, members of the Recon Unit come from all walks, and have single-handedly been pivotal in building up the technology in the Responder arsenal.
