Description
CONCORD's Directive Enforcement Department is a significant reserve force that grew out of the original CONCORD Assembly Peacekeeping Army (CAPA). Known to most simply as the "CONCORD Army", CAPA's permanent command staff consists of career DED officers while most formations are drawn from the reserves of member states, primarily the "Big 4" core empires of New Eden.
DED Army Reserve forces are primarily used for planetary and orbital operations but the division maintains a large fleet for transport, patrol and sentry duties. The fleet is most often used to transport and deploy peacekeepers or conflict monitors, while occasionally serving to enforce blockades against the importation of weapons, or the escalation of conflicts by mercenaries and other outside forces.
