The ongoing occupation of the Mojave and the lack of activity from the Legion resulted in the quality of training among soldiers deployed to the theater to deteriorate. This warped the Mojave Campaign to the point that heavy infantry units, soldiers with normal and salvaged power armor suits, stay back home protecting the barons' ranches from small-time raiders, while rank-and-file troops are sent to the Mojave to maintain the campaign, often without proper service rifles or body armor. Although they only had one vote at the ballot box, their wealth made it easy for them to buy the loyalties of soldiers. The biggest problem the Army encountered was the influence of brahmin barons. Composed of numerous army battalions, a sharpshooter-skirmisher battalion, and many Ranger battalions, the NCRA has tens or hundreds of thousands of troops at its disposal, enough to absorb the continued loss of one thousand troops each year in the Mojave Campaign alone and still retain operational capability. īy 2281, the NCRA was the single largest military force in the wasteland, rivaled only by the Caesar's Legion. Other notable campaigns that shaped the modern NCR Army were the removal of long-standing raider tribes such as the Vipers and the Jackals, and, of course, the Brotherhood War. Soldiers of the army distinguished themselves, including future President Aaron Kimball.
In 2253, the retaliatory Pacification of the Mojave was carried out by an overwhelming force of three battalions, in a protracted war that lasted seventeen years. Following the death of President Tandi, it has also became an instrument of expansion, further developing its numbers. The army has continued to grow and serve NCR's interests, securing its expansion and protecting territories under its control.
The New California Republic Rangers were incorporated into the military in the following years, but with a separate chain of command. The origins of the Army are not detailed, but by 2241 it was the largest standing army in New California, composed of several divisions, including special (mechanized) cavalry and other mechanized units.
