Imagine being some retarded teenager getting high in the woods around the fence of a power plant and getting smoked with no warning by the DOE tac response

didnt this happen to some dudes S.T.A.L.K.E.R. larping in russia like 2 years ago

>>64091425
I had no idea the DOE gets around like that.

>>64091391 (OP)
what are those yellow pants, chaps?

>>64091463
probably some security uniform

>>64091391 (OP) There ain't no trees at Hanford. That shit is in the desert.

>>64091864
In the evergreen state

>>64091883
Axes and chainsaws, bro. You should see the place. Maybe a few trees on the river bank.

Department of Energy lore is insane

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Protective_Forces

> The FPFs have been described by the DOE as "elite fighting forces" designed to operate in "combat environments".

>The Federal Protective Forces are heavily armed, which is reflective of the anticipated capabilities of an adversary likely to attempt an assault against a Category I material-holding site. The current hypothetical adversary against which Protective Forces prepare is described in a 2004 Design Basis Threat (DBT) issued by the Department of Energy. Though the DBT is classified, the hypothetical adversary has been generally described as a "larger" force that would seek to overrun the defenses of a DOE facility in order to capture Category I special material. Department of Energy studies have indicated that up to 50 percent of a Protective Forces detachment would be killed responding to some variations of the threat envisaged.

>Some have called for Category I material-holding sites located near populated areas to be moved to more remote regions due to the threat of heavy civilian deaths that could be incidentally inflicted by the Protective Forces while defending a site from attack. For instance, a neighborhood sits within the 1.5-mile (2.4 km) range of the Lawrence Livermore Laboratory's M134 gun emplacements, creating the potential that "children at play, joggers and families working in their yards" could be struck by stray bullets from Federal Protective Forces if an attack originated from their direction.

>An NNSA study noted that the level of force and types of weaponry the Protective Forces would deploy in pursuit of an adversary which had seized nuclear material and moved it off-site may produce heavy "collateral non-combatant casualties" during a recapture operation.

Yes, anything east of the cascades is a fucking wasteland shit sucks. The only reason there's any green is because they irrigate the shit out of rivers to grow orchards there, outside of river range it's just rocks and small shrubs.

yea hazmat chaps so he can bare his whole naked ass to the reactor

The entire southeast part of Washington is sagebrush and farmland, you fuck.

Also note that their ROE is basically kill everyone who is a potential threat. Hostages are all 100% expendable if Category I material is on the line.

>>64092895
>M134 gun emplacements
Rule of cool and all that

>>64092895
They're real-life HECU.

>>64092895
>The Protective Forces are recruited and employed by private companies, yet are trained, equipped, and under the operational command of Defense Nuclear Security, a program of the Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration (two Protective Forces, those at the Savannah River Site and the Idaho National Laboratory, are under the control of the DOE's Office of Environmental Management). Each Department of Energy site housing a Protective Forces contingent contracts with a different company for manpower.[1]

Few years ago I was at the SOCOM trade show in Tampa

Dude was leading a team at a DOE site, wouldn't say where.
>can I send you some swag?
>sure.mp3
>he hands me a card, with DOE site location

I don't think he likes guns and probably wouldn't have one at the dinner table. You'd have to force feed it to him. In minecraft.

>>badge says Pinkerton
Welp, there goes any chance they might have any concern for civilian casualties in the event of an attack.

Retard here. What is Category I material?

>>64101532
fissile material above a certain quantity

I seem to recall hearing somewhere that these guys are authorised to deploy nerve agents as part of a recovery effort

I remember someone once described the DoE's rules of engagement as "a constitution free zone"
