Bitter Springs

 is a New California Republic base in the far northeastern Mojave Wasteland. The NCR seized the town from local tribals during the Bitter Springs Massacre. Many of those killed belonged to the Great Khans, which is why the Khans are now trying to destroy it.

History
A number of Khans were tracked to this area by the NCR many years ago. The NCR believed this to be their base of operations, and sent a large detachment of troops to retake the area. The 1st Recon Sniper Squad, with Boone, were sent to the only retreat point from Bitter Springs, to cut off their escape. Little did the NCR realise that this was infact homes of khan women and children. As the khans were pushed out, 1st Recon was ordered to fire on those retreating. Radio contact with the NCR was "sketchy", not understanding that the situation involved unarmed civilians. Superiors ordered them to "fire until [you're] out of ammo". 1st Recon obeyed, and what happened at Bitter Springs has had a large psychological impact on Boone.
