Well, shit. I screwed up the article title and then made a note about spelling it right. That's embarrasingly silly of me.
Good job

American troops in Mexico conflict
I could be mistaken as I haven't seen this episode in a while, but weren't the American soldiers in this episode American Empire troops as opposed to US? As someone familiar with the series would presumably know, the United States after WW3 was fractured into three separate countries and the United States as it existed in 2020 (consisting of Washington state, Arizona, Utah, Montana, North & South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, and Wisconsin) wasn't in any shape, economically or militarily, to wage war beyond its borders.

- Well if I remember something, Batou was with the "American" troops in Latin America. I'd need to rewatch the episode again, but they also mentioned he was with the SEAL. Excalibur01 02:39, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
- He has a Japanese flag on his BDU shirt in this episode, so he's clearly with the Japanese contingent in Mexico. He did mention being "with the Rangers" in a couple other episodes, but I don't think he was referring to the American ones. In a later episode, he revealed himself to members of a military/paramilitary unit with the same prosthetic eyes as him saying "I'm one of you", but this was a J-SDF Special Ops unit, not an American one. At any rate, I'm watching this episode as we speak, so I can at least confirm whether these American troops are US, AE, or RAA. Spartan198 14:34, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
- They were AE troops. On a side note, it bugged me how the Americans in that episode were portrayed as reckless and prone to panicking at the slightest little thing. Spartan198 14:49, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
