Dixie Combined Operational Group

Dixie Combined Operational Group is a military organization, which brings together units from different services to patrol the nation and defend it from external and internal threats.

Overview

When former Secretary of Defense Jonathan Seward declared martial law on August 17, 1996 and suspended the US Constitution, Combined Operational Groups were deployed to maintain order throughout the country.

Dixie COG has is made up of mostly Navy and Marine units. Considering the location of its military district (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina), this is not surprising. This COG and the Midwest COG share the responsibility of patrolling the Mississippi River. As any other COG, Dixie COG is made up of three elements: one force with heavy armor or firepower, one larger infantry force, and an air wing.
