Strategic Homeland Division"Extremis Malis Extrema Remedia"
— Motto; Latin for "Extreme Remedies for Extreme Evil"
The Strategic Homeland Division (SHD), referred to as "The Division", is a classified unit of highly trained, self-supported tactical agents appearing in Tom Clancy's The Division. The main objective of The Division is to ensure the continuity of government in the case of a catastrophic emergency.
Recruitment
Agents are hand-picked from various aspects of society. Commonly they have a background in military, law enforcement, intelligence community, rescue services or engineering. They are approached and recruited based on a set of criteria. Such recruitment can take a long time to make sure the candidate fits the profile and is suited for this type of job, and often, candidates are recommended by word of mouth from existing members. Once the Strategic Homeland Division has determined a candidate has adequately fulfilled requirements, candidates are offered to join.
Branches
- Analytics: Handles information processing and data management from secured locations across the nation
- Strategic: Act as extra security and staff detail to government officials and leaders across the nation
- Tactical: Are the boots on the ground that handle field work
During peace time, SHD has it's members embedded within society all across the nation waiting and preparing for activation. The Division receives funding through Federal channels but without public oversight.
The Division is a last resort measure. As such, the members of the Division supersede any other operative, agent or federal employee in the field. They have a form of executive power and answer directly to the President.
The Division must ensure that the key infrastructures and people that remain are protected, They must investigate the cause of the emergency and monitor the situation as it unfolds, creating a shared picture for everyone to act on. Finally, they are mandated to engage any and all rising threats that hinder response efforts following the emergency. These three steps are the main objective of the Division and the agents achieve them by any means necessary. This could mean collaborating with other agencies or taking direct actions by themselves.
Equipment
Division agents carry advanced gear and state of the art technology. Some of their gear and weapons must also be scavenged, bartered, earned, or received in special packs and kits. Some of their gear bears their agency logo.
