Pedley

Pedley is a small fictional town near the Rocky Mountains and appears in the nuclear holocaust world of the series. To the present day it is abandoned. Pedley is a town outside of the Green Zone itself.

Background
Pedley Town became a small community center for survivors of the nuclear holocaust events in North America. The population of the town was to be estimated at around a low fifty five during the early months of 2014.

It was constantly protected by patrols of U.S. soldiers operating from Forward Operating Base Havenhel and was frequently subjected to Raider attacks. The town served both as refuge for survivors and a watch-post for Raiders attempting to attack F.O.B. Havenhel from the south.

As Raider attacks became more frequent on Pedley, patrols were stepped up and a small force of soldiers was dispatched to locate and eliminate the Raiders operating nearby. Unknown to the U.S. forces operating at Pedley and F.O.B. Havenhel, the Raiders had amassed a huge force of their own, although their intentions was not to take Pedley, they were simply amassing their forces for a full scale assault on F.O.B. Havenhel.

The U.S. troops deployed to Pedley had located the Raider groups and sent word back to F.O.B. Havenhel warning them of the immediate danger threatening both F.O.B. Havenhel and Pedley.

The battle of Pedley town
A small group of Raiders driving several vehicles into Pedley raced in at high speeds carrying infected individuals aboard their vehicles. Several U.S. troops opened fire upon the vehicles, sending one out of control and rolling into a house and catching on fire. The second vehicle operated by the Raiders crashed directly into a humvee, sending the gunner of the humvee flying out of the .50 caliber gun mount.

The civilians within the town panicked, most hid in their houses while the others fled the town in all directions. The infected individuals aboard the second vehicle broke free of their binds and attacked the civilians. Soldiers within the small town had lost their commanding officer as he also panicked and fled. His fate is unknown. The remaining handful of soldiers fought off the small Raider groups on the perimeter of the town and eliminated the infection before it had a chance of consuming the population.

Lance Corporal Deacon Ellsworth, whom took command of the situation after their senior officer abandoned them, radioed in to F.O.B. Havenhel requesting trucks be sent to evacuate the town of Pedley as the crash of the first Raider vehicle had lit the town on fire.

Pedley was quickly evacuated, the civilians, soldiers, and supplies were transferred to F.O.B. Havenhel and the town surrendered itself to the inferno consuming it.
