Editing Patrol Block (section)

==History==
===Background===
The group was established after the fall of the PRT by ex-PRT staff.<ref name="D1.1prt"/>

===Early-[[Ward]]===
As a member of the Patrol Group, [[Victoria Dallon|Victoria]] acted as Squad Captain for security detail and support for an event at the Norfair Community Center. The event planned to announce a newly formed hero group. As the event was planning to get underway, [[Norfair Community Center Attack|a surprise attack]] by a mercenary group resulted in the non-lethal shooting of [[Fume Hood]]. Victoria was ousted as a Cape and asked to resign from the team.

===Post-[[Mathers Compound Assault|Fallen fall]]===
Gilpatrick's patrol group offered assistance with the containment during the incident. Near the end of the fight, the Patrol group was seen detaining [[Swansong|Ashley]] after she murdered [[Beast of Burden]]. The Patrol group backed Victoria up during her negotiation with the final standoff between the Crowleys. Afterward, they helped transport [[Mama Mathers]] into containment.

After the Fallen retreated to Boston, Victoria pleaded with several local Patrol Groups lead by Bash, Marcial, and Gaymon to rally and pursue the retreating group. After a period of time, Marcial informed Victoria that the patrol group would not assist with the remaining Fallen.<ref name="P6.6adm">“We couldn’t come to a decision, so we talked to the administrators who coordinate the patrol blocks,” Captain Marcial answered me.  “They said no.” - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/05/01/pitch-6-6/ Excerpt] from [[Pitch 6.6]]</ref>

After Victoria's group received a tip from [[Tattletale]] and a Crowley brother that the Fallen planned 'something big', she entered one of the targeted stations. Here, Junior Captain Eads' squad was present and helped them take down the threat. Unfortunately it was not enough, as other stations were hit simultaneously and caused major havoc at portal points across [[The City]].

===Post-[[Assault on the Time Bubbles|Time Bubble Pop]]===
Patrol Block assisted heroic groups with extrajudicial banishment of uncontainable parahumans to another Earth.

===Post-[[Attack on Teacher]]===
Had a lot of work thanks to riots near the portals during the evacuation of [[The City]].<ref name="II17.x">[[Sundown 17.x]]</ref>

===[[The Ice Breaks]]===
Patrol Block assisted [[Wardens]] in their anti-[[titan]] efforts, <ref name="II18.2">[[Radiation 18.2]]</ref> including leading the charge into [[The Shardspace]].<ref name="II18.10">[[Radiation 18.10]]</ref>

Ten patrol officers with dormant [[Corona Pollentia]]s, including [[Gilpatrick]], were tinker-linked by [[Lookout]] to [[Rain]], allowing them to invade his dreamscape. Two of those officers, Valentin and Cox, were impersonated by [[Matryoshka]] and [[Bijou]].<ref name="II19.c">[[Infrared 19.c]]</ref><!-- not clear if they killed them or just found fresh corpses in the ruins--> All survived patrol officers  acquired powers as a consequence of an attack by shard-guardian.<ref>When Gilpatrick came to the dream room, he and the others got connected up.  I detached them, they all got powers.  Except for the two infiltrators. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2020/02/04/infrared-19-8/ Excerpt] from [[Infrared 19.8]]</ref>
