45->''The bright halogen headlights flooded the dank alleyway. [[OurWerewolvesAreDifferent Smashes-Steel]] heard the two men get out. Dark suits like a spider's body. Dark glasses like a spider's eyes. No smell at all, which bothered him more than the fact that the one on the left [[GoodThingYouCanHeal had been disemboweled ten minutes ago]]. They held guns, like most apes, but Smashes-Steel knew these guns were [[{{Magitek}} something else entirely]].\

53->''[[GovernmentAgencyOfFiction NRO SECTION DELTA]] operatives work under administrative cover as employees of the National Reconnaissance Office. Since the NRO [[NoSuchAgency doesn't officially exist]], DELTA operatives [[InstitutionalAllegianceConcealment have a second layer of cover]] as employees of the Department of the [[UsefulNotes/YanksWithTanks Air Force]], UsefulNotes/{{NSA}}, or UsefulNotes/{{CIA}}. NRO DELTA only answers to the NSA's Project GARNET, which answers to Project AQUARIUS, which answers to MJ-12, which answers to no one. NRO DELTA operatives provide Project GARNET and all its sub-projects with physical security and information security as well as counterintelligence and disinformation services. Burglary, bugging, bribery, and blackmail are NRO DELTA's bread and butter. Any means justifies the end of maintaining the secrecy of MJ-12. [[HeKnowsTooMuch The use of deadly force is always authorized]]. More often than not, NRO DELTA operatives do not know what it is they are guarding or covering up; there are layers of disinformation between NRO DELTA and the MJ-12 control group. DELTA operatives are recruited from the CIA, NSA, DIA, and the Military Intelligence branches. DELTA operatives provide [[IWasNeverHere cover stories]] and operational security for both Project MOON DUST and TheGreys' terrestrial activities. They guard the [[SecretGovernmentWarehouse ICE CAVE]] at Los Alamos; the [[ElaborateUndergroundBase COUNTRY CLUB]] in Maryland; the Majestic facilities at Wright-Patterson AFB, Edwards AFB, and Ft. Belvoir; [[Area51 AREA-51's]] S-4 laboratory on the Air Force's Nellis Test Range; and Sub-Project ARC DREAM's Facility-12. They also operate disinformation campaigns against UFO investigators such as [=SaucerWatch=].''
