The 9th Light Brigade (Hood) has been declared operational by the New DDS Army and will form part of the Reserve Battlegroup. Over 3000 Hoods and associates volunteered for the brigade (some even did not require a beating) though at the moment it is only equipped with light weapons. Action Painting is trying to secure some light armour for the brigade.
The Hoods commander said the brigade would be a "haven of professionalism" in a sea of sloth. Most analysts think the brigade is of dubious military value.
