Die Wintersoldaten

**Task Force Dragon** was a joint British-American-French-Russian task force formed by US general Walter Graham along with support from US President **Franklin D. Roosevelt**, along with his successor **Harry S. Truman**.

## History

In November of 1942, two anonymous tips, one from the American OSS and one from the British SOE respectively, reached the desks of Franklin Deleanor Roosevelt in the United States and Winston Churchill in the United Kingdom, alerting them to the Nazi German Holocaust of the Jewish people, as well as the efforts of a group of anti-Nazi dissidents comprising of Nazi defectors and German anti-Nazi guerilla fighters to undermine and eventually overthrow Adolf Hitler as a direct response to the Jewish genocide. Outraged at Hitler's actions, President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill turned to US general Walter Graham and British Army lieutenant Allen Carver.

Six months later, Carver and Graham, with Churchill and Roosevelt's blessing, officially activated Task Force Dragon, a covert special operations group. Carver and Graham decided to covertly aid the anti-Nazi resistance movement in sabotaging Nazi German operations across Europe in a series of daring military raids against Nazi supply lines and outposts throughout Nazi-occupied Europe. They discovered intel concerning the use of enhanced Nazi supersoldiers against the Soviets in Stalingrad, and raced to counter the threat, eventually proving to be far deadlier than the Nightfall soldiers themselves.

In addition to these events, Task Force Dragon broke into many concentration camps ahead of the Allied Forces in Europe, rescuing dozens of Jewish prisoners and incorporating them into their ranks. This made them a crucial ally of the Jewish partisans who were fighting the Nazis across Europe.

Their activites caught the attention of Adolf Hitler himself, who called them "Filthy Swine" and immediately gave orders to his underlying generals to deal with the threat, but ultimately failed to prevent Task Force Dragon from aiding Die Wintersoldaten in overthrowing Hitler in a bloody coup during the Battle of Berlin.

Following the victory in Berlin, Task Force Dragon was reassigned to the Pacific Theater, where they were tasked with aiding the US forces in the Battle of Okinawa, before being retasked again, this time with orders to assist Soviets during the Soviet-Japanese War and the Soviet invasion of Manchuria.

Task Force Dragon was later put on standby, with orders to to assist the Allies in the invasion of the Japanese Home Islands, also known as Operation Downfall, if needed. However, this mission was eventually scrapped once the nukes were dropped on Japan, forcing the Imperial Japanese Empire to surrender.
