U.S. Covert Operations Manual


Produced by the United States Department of the Army before the Great War, the Covert Operations Manual provides training and information to soldiers in how to avoid detection by enemies. Due to how magazines changed between Fallout 4 and Fallout 76, copies have different benefits. In Fallout 4 each copy found by the Sole Survivor provides ranks of the Covert Operations perk, which permanently increases the ability to sneak. In Fallout 76 each issue provides a different, temporary, perk which lasts for a real world hour.
