Boomers

The  are a faction in Fallout: New Vegas. The Boomers are a tribe descended from a group of vault dwellers who left Vault 34 who revere explosions and the discharge of weapons.

Background
Vault 34's armory was overstocked but not possible to lock. The Overseer had the munitions guarded closely, and did not allow the use of firearms or explosives in the vault. After a conflict with the Overseer, the Boomers left Vault 34 and wandered the wastes. Their superior firepower meant that the "savages" they encountered in the outside world didn't stand a chance. The Boomers eventually settled at Nellis Airforce Base near New Vegas. They use the base's virtual reality pods to train their members in the use of firearms, explosives and aircraft. While no working aircraft remain at Nellis, the Boomers dream of one day recovering a crashed B-29 bomber in Lake Mead before the Great War and using it to rain fiery explosive death on the savages of the Mojave wasteland.
