Nachrichtendienst

The Nachrichtendienst, or Intelligence, is the primary information gathering and black ops branch of the Military Forces. Little information can be given out about this branch of the government due to the fact that they are always handling vital information of some type or another. These men are some of the most loyal in the Empire and have even been trained to commit suicide to keep intelligence information out of the hands of others.

Most of the logistics is handled by other branches of the military, freeing personnel for more important operations and analysis. But this also makes the Nachrichtendienst rely more on the other branches. In return, both of the other branches rely heavily on the Nachrichtendienst and creates a mutual relationship necessary to work well enough.
