Brotherhood First Expeditionary Force

The Brotherhood First Expeditionary Force is a faction made up of Brotherhood of Steel soldiers sent from Lost Hills to re-establish contact with the Appalachian Brotherhood.

Background
When Roger Maxson formed the Brotherhood of Steel following the Great War, he used surviving satellites to communicate with survivors across the country, attempting to recruit them into the Brotherhood. He succeeded in contacting Elizabeth Taggerdy, who formed a Brotherhood chapter with her ranger unit in Appalachia.

Contact was lost with Taggerdy when the satellites failed, and the Western Brotherhood was left unaware of the outcome of the Expeditionary Force's war against scorchbeasts and the accompanying Scorched Plague.

Paladin Leila Rahmani led the First Expeditionary Force on their cross-country journey from the Lost Hills bunker to discern the fate of the group. After crossing the Rocky Mountains, radio communications were likewise lost between Lost Hills and the Expeditionary Force. However, after Russell Dorsey fortified the ATLAS Observatory, her voice could once again be heard across the region, becoming more audible with each passing week.

Appearances
The Brotherhood First Expeditionary Force appears in Fallout 76, mentioned in The Legendary Run, introduced in the One Wasteland For All update, and expanded upon in Fractured Steel.
