South Boston military checkpoint

The South Boston military checkpoint is a location in the South Boston neighborhood of Boston $$

Background
Formerly manned by soldiers from Echo Company of the 104th Infantry Regiment, the checkpoint was responsible for searching vehicles for contraband, and was authorized to disassemble vehicles to this end. When the Great War broke out, the checkpoint began broadcasting on emergency frequency RJ1138, calling all South Boston Army soldiers to its coordinates in a loop. As of 2287, the checkpoint has fallen under Gunners control, with an unnamed Gunner commander in charge.

Layout
The checkpoint is located directly west of the Castle and past the bridge just outside the South Boston area. It consists of two structures: the main building guarded by two Gunners, and a trailer where a single Gunner is often found resting. The trailer houses a sleeping bag and a mattress, as well as a Fat Man.

In the main building, there is a Master-locked safe with ammunition and other containers with minor loot. Two beds and a weapons workbench are also available in this building. On the northern side of the building lies an APC. On the western side of the building is a cage that can be opened with a nearby Expert-locked terminal. The cage contains a power armor station, a full set of power armor, and a Mini Nuke. On top of the building lies a skeleton next to a leveled combat sniper rifle.

 * Guns and Bullets issue #7 - Inside the checkpoint building, on a desk.
