Ground Forces of the UPPA

Ground Forces of the UPPA
The Ground Forces of the UPPA is the Largest branch of the entire UPPA military with the most amount of soldiers in both Active and Reserve. Ground forces have been in every UPPA conflict since their founding.

Formation
Along with the creation of the UPPA on Payson 26th, 3205 the Ground Forces of the UPPA were also established. The purpose of the Ground Forces were to be able to deploy quicker than any other branch and spearhead ground ops. When first established only 1,300,000 million active duty personel and 400,000 Reserves were in the branch but now its become the largest branch with over 300 million in both the Active and reserves.

Current Engagements
The Ground Forces are engaged in all current UPPA engagements including the Nial Civil War where UPPA soldiers in the Ground Forces that were born on Nial are sent to help there home since the UPPA has deemed that sending troops that are from other planets might infuriate the Rebels and cause them to lead more frequent and Violent attacks. Not all soldiers who were born on Nial are sent here since the Rebels numbers are small and attack are spaced apart.

Most of the Ground Forces troops are sent to deal with the Borarian Conquest the largest war going on in the Solar System to date. In the 5 years since the war started over 2 million Active Duty Ground Force soldiers have been killed. They are currently leading battles on Bora itself and the moons surrounding it, its ally Zakala and the Borarian controlled moon of Nagla "Yu".

While considered part of the Borarian Conquest the "Zakala War" is another warzone Ground Forces are currently engaged in, while not as much of a threat as its ally Bora Zakala still has a powerful military force that the UPPA must contain before it can launch attacks on other planets and really start assisting the Borarians.
