ATLESIAN MILITARY ARCHIVE FILE: #0075
The foundation of the Science Bureau was originally founded in 11AW, as a branch of the Engineering Corps to research biological enhancements and biological methods of pacification. Instead, the Bureau discovered a way to maintain an altitude for anything. It is due to them and their efforts that our glorious capital, the City of Atlas, is able to command the skies of Solitas from above the disgraced city of Mantle. Although it should be noted that their method of doing so remains a closely guarded secret. It gained Operational independence from the EC in 23AW
Its first Head as an independent branch of the Military, short though his tenure was, was Doctor Joachim Klaus.
It is almost certain that it will be the Science Bureau that leads our people back to our rightful place as leaders on the international stage, and as such they are afforded a certain level of freedom in how they operate. Members of the Bureau are, therefore, under far more severe restrictions as to what they can and cannot speak about.
- General Violetta Klaus, 24 AW.
