Fallout 3 Military Checkpoints

Military checkpoints are unmarked locations found throughout the Capital Wasteland. They can be identified by the parked military trucks. Often they are protected by National Guard of the United States robots or through barricades of sandbags, and are always accompanied by a sign warning for high radiation levels. There are always assault rifles and ammunition at these locations.

Reclining Groves military checkpoint
The location consists of an army truck with 3 skeletons in the back, a tent, and a small sandbag barricade. The tent has a bed, a ham radio, and 2 metal boxes. Either a sentry bot or a Mister Gutsy will patrol this camp, depending on the player's level. The camp used to be a roadblock for a radiation clean up.
