Halland News – As news of any Hallsaw Pact invasion into Halland appears to have tapered, Halland’s 1^st Infantry Division is still on high alert. This 330 man fighting force is equipped to erupt in a fury of fire power that has yet to be seen. The 1^st Infantry Division has a significant artillery arsenal and is also supported by tanks from the 10^th Tank Division.

In addition, this Division has the only brigade of HT-22 Tanks assigned to it. The HT-22 Tank (pictured below) is a modified tank and mobile missile launcher capable of firing up to 3 missiles. The HT-22 Tank is only made in Halland and no other country is in possession of it. Its main purpose is to eliminate enemy armor and large enemy troop emplacements. However, the Halland Military is keeping secret on how many are in service.

Members of the 1^st Infantry Division that are assigned to the HT-22 Tank realize the fire power on hand in the event an invasion force crossed the DMZ. "It would be suicidal to breach our defenses on our side of the DMZ,” stated one soldier. "There would be catastrophic damage to the equipment and moral of the enemy.”

But even if an invasion force were to succeed in navigating and overcoming the defenses of the DMZ, a portion of the Hall Republic Regular Army sits to the east of the 1^st Infantry Division to provide support for this very purpose. "The Hall Republic Regular Army Force stationed just a few miles to the East of us has plenty of military personnel, artillery, tanks, and other combat equipment to support the 1^st Infantry Division if an invasion does take place,” cited the Commander of the 1^st Infantry Division. "As of right now, we have not seen any sign of hostilities on the other side and we are in communication regularly with the HIA (Halland Intelligence Agency). Most likely, it will be the HIA that tips us off on the invading force if they are observed moving towards Halland from either Hallville or through Evelynland. At that point, we’ll have approximately 4 to 6 hours to respond.”
