Because of this it was voted that task force Shepard aid in the retreat and evacuation of the remaining men and women, then level the Anchorage base. After 2 months of seige they were down to 211 Army/National Guard soldiers and one badly damaged M-75 MBT. Dwindling in numbers didn't help either when they first started out, they had almost 500 regular Army and National Guard soldiers, 5 fighters, 2 tanks, and one VTOL. Without proper ammo supplies, and still relying on older R91 assault rifles and AER9 laser rifles, the Anchorage G.I.'s were no match for the well equipped Enclave. When task force Shepard happened upon the battle field, the Enclave had almost over run Anchorage line. via RobCo UOS, the Enclave immediately launched repeated attacks against the Anchorage base. And upon learning that the photos where already send to the military H.Q. A spy plane of the remaining Alaska Air National Guard took pictures of the horrific slaughter, just before being shot down by Enclave AA lasers. So they found the lead officer of the Anchorage remnants, who explained that they were shadow government spooks, secretly committing genocide against the Canadians, even after the nuclear holocaust. When asked who these crazy devil horn storm troopers were, and why they were attacking, the remaining G.I.'s were just clueless. The massive 406mm plasma rounds melted 20 Enclave soldiers in a single hit, and upon seeing that, the remaining Enclave retreated to their brand new vertibirds that were littered with bullet holes and laser scoring.ДЄfter the first battle, the commander of carrier group Shepard went on land to talk to the remaining U.S. After the vertibirds broke off, a Montana Class Battleship in the group began pounding the Enclave ground forces with its 16 inch guns. However after the CIWS's and SAM missiles were brought online, the Enclave vertibirds began droping like flies. One Coast Guard cutter in the group was destroyed when it was struck by 12 mini nukes in a strafing run. Just minutes later the crews of task force Shepard were being plastered by squadrons of Enclave vertibirds assuming they were reinforcements. There were miles of trenches filled with dead bodies, and destroyed robots. When the 7 ships of carrier as Shepard arrived, they found a warzone littered with downed Chinese bombers and Vertibirds. Army soldiers fighting 'Crazy spec-ops wanna be's with devil horned armor'. The ships of carrier group Shepard sent to the Anchorage Line, where they had heard of U.S. military installations in search of survivors. These carrier groups would each go to known U.S. servicemen and women, divided into carrier groups. bases for survivors.ДЎ8 months after the great war, the remaining 65 Ships carrying the last few hundred thousand U.S.

After recovering the remaining pilots and soldiers from Asia, they began seeking out larger U.S. Most of the fighter and attack planes survived the hard landings, but large supersonic bombers like the B-52's and Valkyries did not. Knowing that every other Air Force plane besides the P-80's were not capable of landing on carriers, the Air Force pilots crash landing into the oceans and were picked up by Navy ships. In the coming weeks after the nuclear war, the remaining Navy Carrier groups joined up with the Coast Guard, and began the process of rescuing other military personnel. After the dust settled on October 24th, 2077, the remaining Navy ships and Air Force planes began to join up with Army, Marine, and Coast Guard survivors.

The only nukes to not reach the reds were either older bombs, or missiles that didn't get a chance to launch. Ppening, every ICBM, rocket, cruise missile, bomber, and even civilian rockets loaded with warheads, where launched indiscriminately at Asia. The entire Air Force and Navy was sent on a suicide mission to try and slow the Chinese bombers down long enough for the remaining nukes to get off. mainland, so they focused their efforts on reducing every Chinese base, city and town to the ground. The military knew that they couldnвЂ™t stop all the Chinese bombs from hitting the U.S. nukes from submarines, warships, silos, and bombers, pounded most of Asia without a second thought.

While the military put up one hell of a fight, their ammo ran out in minutes allowing the Chinese bombers to walk all over them. When the Great War first started, American forces in Asia were taken by surprise by thousands of MRBMs and bombers hitting their bases. military, as they were the first to get hit.

However, do to the 2-hour engagement with China, not a lot was left of the U.S. On October 23rd, 2077, when the world was consumed in nuclear fire, the armies of the world almost ceased to exist.
