Current Composition
Aswick currently has several units in Caranad. They operate mainly from Camp Bastion in the northern province of Cardina, some 150 miles North-East of the Coalition's main base of San Romero. The Air Cavalry Brigade was formed specially to be employed in this Task Force.
In addition to Camp Bastion, the Aswickan Forces have built and hold a total of three Forward Operating Bases. FOB Andersen named after Roy Andersen, a Captain in the Army killed by a roadside I.E.D near the FOB's location.

Lastly there is FOB Kolniczynki named after Private Kolniczynki, who was killed after the Aquitaynian helicopter he was being CASEVACed by crashed due to faulty maintenance.
