Whitetail Oath | ||
The Whitetail Militia is a Resistance faction in Far Cry 5. It’s leader is Eli Palmer, who was previously a friend of Seed Family until Project at Eden's Gate grew violent and their friendship with Whitetail Militia broke apart. It is based in its namesake; the Whitetail Mountains of Hope County, Montana.
Like the rest of Hope County, they are fictional and not based on any real life militia group in Montana.
Far Cry 5[]
The Whitetails were once a small group of militiamen dedicated to protecting the Whitetail Mountains against any form of tyranny. However, their war against Eden's Gate has dwindled their numbers due to the Project's overwhelming force. Due to this setback, the Whitetail Militia has resorted to training any volunteers willing to take up arms against the Project.
Of all Seed Family members, Jacob Seed clashed against Whitetail Milita the most, not only because of his headquarter being too close but also the fallout after his dangerous attempt to hijack Whitetail Militia leadership.
The Whitetail uniform is a mix of civilian/military camouflage attire. Their fighting techniques vary from guerrilla warfare, sabotage, and espionage.
As the world was on the brink of WW3 by 2018, Whitetail Militia received no help at all from other militia groups in Montana, who were busy tackling with local problems as dangerous as Project at Eden's Gate, and no help from Montana National Guard nor United States Armed Forces either.
To make up for this, the authorities ignored all Whitetail Militia actions that legal militia groups in the US are normally not allowed to do.
