Who are the Troopers?
In the 23rd century, Terra [Earth] is governed by the United Citizens Federation, a veteran-lead republic, forged from the chaos created by 22nd century “social scientists.” The Mobile Infantry are the elite fighting arm of this republic. Composed entirely of volunteers, each Trooper swears to lay down his or her life in the defense of Terra, when they take the Service oath. This term of service is for “not less than two years, or as much longer as may be required by the needs of the Service….”. Once the term has been served out, the Troopers are accorded all the rights and privileges of Federation citizenship. Service guarantees citizenship. 1.
