Description

The Zeon Earth Attack Force personnel who serve on the rear lines as replacement soldiers and security on the bases during the invasion were the Reserve Infantry Forces, a collection of Army troopers who were kept on standby until called into action to reinforce the regular units.  Until they were called into duty, most tended to non-combatant duties such as vehicle repairmen, clerks, or emergency nurses for the first few months of combat on Earth.  When the Zeon lines were overextended, the Reserves were summoned to help deliver replacement mobile suits and guard the resupply convoys.  Seven months after the start of the war, all of the Reserve Force would start seeing front line action.  More than 70% of the Zeon infantry who fought at Odessa were members of the Reserve, since most of the European Army units had long since depleted their forces.
Their main weapons were the MP-40S submachine gun and human-sized Sturmfausts, and their main vehicles were the Russel 1/12 Zebu trucks and Samson mobile suit carrier transports.
