Civilian Defense Force

The Civilian Defense Force (CDF) is a civilian militia connected to the United Empire of Earth (UEE) Advocacy. Founded in 2947, it was created with the enactment of the Militia Mobilization Initiative as a way for law enforcement to enlist the public to help with larger scale threats in the system. The CDF program is currently run under Advocacy supervision, so local law must petition the Advocacy for authorization.
