History of the Conglomerate

Below is the official history of the United Armed Forces Conglomerate, all events cross-checked and referenced for accuracy. Exact dates are present if possible. Scroll down to learn about why the UAFC values tradition, and the lessons we learned to get us where we are today.

Origins

Before the Conglomerate, two organizations existed under the names of Fleet Command Naval Force (known colloquially as FLEETCOM) and the San Andreas Defense Force (known as SADF). Each Organization charted their own paths, eventually converging as both respected each other and their respective missions. Follow their paths below.

Fleet command naval force

FLEETCOM was originally founded in 2015 on Xbox 360 by FCNF Sovereign. The organization did not last long due to the lack of players on the old generation console and the logistical inability to transfer to the "next generation" of consoles.

San Andreas Defense Force

The San Andreas Defense force was founded in April 2017 by SADF Zero and SADF Blitzkrieg. The Organization found great success due to the addition of Gunrunning, and a focus on mechanized infantry. SADF created

FLEETCOM would later be founded again towards the end of 2016 as old friends of Sovereign and members from the 289th Fighter Squadron "Helix" wanted to come together and create a competitive yet realistic military simulation that provided its members with unique experience and environment. FLEETCOM would struggle during its infancy due to a lack of driven players and being small fish in a sea of sharks.

Great Experiment

FLEETCOM would see a series of successes in the early months of 2017, members such as FCNF Apache, FCNF Bahamut and FCNF Krennic would lead and build a renowned Marine Corps that would be deployed time and time again in the some of the most intense combat the community had seen. This Marine Corps would be supported a growing Naval Air Force built on the infamous training regimens from the 289th Fighter Squadron "Helix", led by FCNF Paladin, FCNF Hawk and FCNF Massacre. 

Whilst FLEETCOM was becoming a powerhouse in its own right, the San Andreas Defense Force was just coming to light. Founded in late April by SADF Zero and SADF Blitzkrieg after numerous stints around different crews in the community, these two decided to build a crew dedicated to fighting the influx of auto aim tryhards and protect the "little guys" from griefing. Supported by a small staff and a few loyal members, Zero and Blitzkrieg were able to produce a recruitment video which was.a success instantly, bringing not only name recognition but recruits by the dozen. In only a few months, the Defense Force had tripled and became a force to be reckoned with in the community after it had beat TEMC, NOOS, and AFO in small engagements. These string of victories put SADF on the radar of larger community powers such as SCAR and FLEETCOM who saw a viable partner in community policies. SCAR, FLEETCOM, and SADF would work jointly to police the community until a series of disagreements occurred. By the time of September 2017, an attack from SCAR Military plus internal instability led to many members deserting their posts and SADF becoming a shadow of what it once was only a month ago.

​​FLEETCOM would face a similar fate in August of 2017, The Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Paladin had resigned unexpectedly and his Deputy, Vice Admiral Hawk soon followed, the Navy was left in terrible shape and the Marine Corps had a severe lack of recruits and no direction at the top as the Commandant of the Marine Corps was nowhere to be found.

It was however a simple joke that would save these two crews. During the summer, the senior leaders of both FLEETCOM and SADF had formed a close working relationship, at times playing other games together. It was during a game of Battlefield 4, when a joke was made that "all problems would be solved if we just merged together". This got everything thinking, and following the conclusion of the game - plans were set in motion. The new crew would be known as STRIKE Command., a hybrid Army and Air Force unit that combined aspects of SADF's culture to defend the community with FLEETCOM's quest to provide an ultra-realistic PvP military simulation experience. STRIKE Command operated smoothly for a month until many of the members of FLEETCOM began to miss their roots as a Marine Corps and Navy based crew and disagreed with many of the traditions and customs that SADF had brought to the table. Around the time of FLEETCOM's yearly anniversary, the decision was made to reactivate FLEETCOM and many - including most the personnel from STRIKE Command - would join. This caused a renaissance of sorts.

Following the failure of Strike Command, a rebirth of FLEETCOM occurred. Older and senior members who were known as the "OGs" joined back into the ranks to return the crew to its former glory. Notable members were FCNF Stone, FCNF Paladin, FCNF Bahamut, FCNF Visual, FCNF Horizon, FCNF Trident, FCNF Hawk, FCNF Massacre, FCNF Galaxy, FCNF Krennic and FCNF Cheftain. New members also joined who would play a large impact in the future of the crew were FCNF Blitzkrieg and FCNF Grim.

From October until December, FLEETCOM saw a massive growth under the leadership of the "OGs". The Naval Air Force grew to unprecedented levels and dominated the skies of the community with its three fighter squadrons and two rotary wing squadrons. The Marine Corps North American Command also grew to include multiple infantry and armor units. During this period, FLEETCOM did not experience combat deployments and was primarily used for diplomatic and intervention missions. They however deploy against STARx Military a multitude of times, a hostile organization led by an individual who had no regard for the community's established laws and norms. FLEETCOM was victorious against the organization and was able to record its final battle which you can find here. The battle was led by an aviator in training, FCNF Blitzkrieg who was able to rally forces together and took command until his commander arrived to take charge. During this time as well, FLEETCOM wrapped up its counter insurgency mission against the auto-aim tryhards who attempted to invade and siege the free aim community over the summer and fall of 2017. This long and costly mission ended in success as the enemy organizations had either been pushed off of the game or had agreed to peace with FLEETCOM.

In late December 2017 during cold weather operations, FLEETCOM saw its first major deployment against AFO, NOOS, UNAF, DAPM and MRCX as apart of Task Force Wolfpack with GOW, SCAR and ALTA. FLEETCOM was late in terms of joining the alliance, but when it joined it was able to dominate the skies and provide our allies with the necessary support they needed. The Wolfpack was soon victorious in its mission of restoring the free aim community to its previous status and removing the threats from the community. The alliance soon fell apart due to a brewing conflict between SCAR and ALTA as well as declining relations between GOW and FLEETCOM.

New reconing

In late February of 2018, FLEETCOM declared war on GOW and began the first of many combat operations donning the Ghostbuster name.
