“ A group of paramilitary warlords bent on using their combat expertise and overwhelming firepower to dominate their enemies and expand their territory. Smart and organized, the True Sons are led by a former JTF officer whose ruthlessness and combat prowess make him and his combatants a horrifying force. ”
The True Sons are a major enemy faction in Tom Clancy's The Division 2. Having some resemblance to the New York faction, the Last Man Battalion, in regard to military training, fortification, and firepower, they are the second most organized, disciplined, and advanced enemy faction, right below the Black Tusk.
This powerful, well-armed group of fascist paramilitary soldiers is comprised of Joint Task Force deserters and mutineers now using their combat expertise and overwhelming firepower advantage to dominate enemies and expand their area of influence. Smart and organized, the True Sons consider themselves a territorial entity with a legitimate army. They seek to expand their influence, consolidate power, and suppress all rivals in the region.
Led by a former JTF field commander named Antwon Ridgeway, the True Sons are typical of a warlord-led faction in a conflict zone or failed state. Their ruthlessness and combat prowess make them a formidable force in the field. All Division agents are advised to exercise extreme caution when undertaking unsupported actions against this adversary.
Background and Events[]
The pandemic hit Washington, D.C. hard, killing many civilians and security forces alike. Despite field inoculations and other immune-support antiviral medications, some JTF units suffered more than seventy-five percent attrition from the smallpox. This spawned discontent in the surviving ranks. On January 10, 2016, Colonel Antwon Ridgeway of the Maryland National Guard was promoted to JTF field commander, southeast region, and given the rank of General following the death of his predecessor in a vehicular accident. Secretly disgusted with what he considered the excessive caution and timidity of JTF's chain of command - officers who issued orders from a disconnected bubble of safety within their fortified base of operations on The White House grounds - General Ridgeway started taking increasingly aggressive and often lethal measures against insurgents, looters and even relatively benign protest crowds inside quarantine zones throughout January and into February. As a result, he earned repeated reprimands from JTF brass. He also diverted supplies meant for the Roosevelt Quarantine and CERA camps away from the camps for his troops.
Eventually, in late February, Ridgeway's cruel and egregious maltreatment of detainees in Roosevelt, the island quarantine encampment on the Potomac River, led to his downfall after murdering an unarmed civilian for breaking quarantine. Court martialed for insubordination, Ridgeway was stripped of his rank and imprisoned at JTF's make-shift detention area in the basement of the American History Museum. But after a short incarceration, he escaped (along with numerous other prisoners) thanks to help from loyal members of his former JTF unit lead by Major Ashford and Captain Keates.
This unit plus new followers freed from the stockade formed the core of a new faction, initially christened the "True Sons of Liberty" but soon shortened to just True Sons. Their first order of business was to kidnap several of the senior JTF officers responsible for Ridgeway's arrest, convene a tribunal to try them, and then summarily execute them.
As the True Sons faction grew, other militia groups in the D.C. area were either assimilated or eradicated. Thanks in part to their formal counterinsurgency training and military-grade weapons and gear, the True Sons quickly rose to a dominant position within D.C. proper.
In late March, Washington, D.C. begins to collapse from the uncontrollable pandemic and subsequent disasters with DC-62. President Mendez orders the remaining government members including Speaker of the House, Andrew Ellis to evacuate the city. During this, General Ridgeway took advantage of the chaos and storms The Capitol and devastates the remaining loyal JTF except for those at based at The White House. Additionally, the True Sons make the Capitol Building their stronghold, and begin to stockpile weapons, vehicles, and ordinance.
The Division strikes back at the True Sons in late May, overrunning the outpost at the Viewpoint Museum, commanded by Staff Sergeant Carl Wade, and destroying the capabilities of the True Sons prison at the American History Museum, commanded by Captain Briggs. Additionally, they cripple the True Sons missile factory at the Air and Space Museum, killing Lieutenant Kelly in the process. By this point, the True Sons and General Ridgeway begin to make preparations to strike back at the Division. In early June, Ridgeway makes the call to bomb the Castle Settlement with DC-62 for refusing to pay 'tribute' to the True Sons. All but seven residents are either killed by the chemicals, or are executed by the True Sons squad that sweeps the Castle following the blast. The Division storms Jefferson Plaza and the Space Administration Headquarters, destroying most stocks of the True Sons' DC-62 weapons. Additionally, they kill both Captain Wilson and Master Sergeant Steve Quiroz (also known as 'Junior'), crippling the True Sons control over South-West DC.
The True Sons begin one final attempt to force the Division into a surrender by taking over the Lincoln Memorial and threatening to bomb the Campus with DC-62 mortars. However, the Division storms the site, containing the remaining DC-62 mortars and killing both Majors Keates and Ashford - two of Ridgeway's closest allies.
The True Sons, seriously weakened, retreated back to their final stronghold in the Capitol Building, where Division agents with the assistance of the remaining Joint Task Force and Civilian Militia assaulted the facility, killing both Lieutenant Simpson (also known as 'Doc') and Captain Kendra Nelson (Also know as 'Crazy Uncle Ken'). After sweeping through the complex, True Sons Leader, Antwon Ridgeway, made his own appearance, giving one final attempt to thwart the assault.
With the death of Ridgeway, most high-ranking officers, and all operational bases, the True Sons have lost any discipline they once had and have collapsed into a scattered gang that attempts to horde resources, reorganize, and scare civilians into submission. Their overall goal - to survive in D.C. against all factions, including the Black Tusk.
Leadership after the death of Ridgeway[]
“ The True Sons are getting bolder under their new leader, General Anderson. He used to be a strategist for Ridgeway, and it looks like his ambition has reached new heights. - Agent Kelso describing the True Sons' command structure under General Anderson.”
When the foundry was captured by one of the only remaining True Sons officers - Colonel Morozova, she finally gave the True Sons a point to rally around for revenge against The Division. They utilized the foundry and scavenged resources to build an armored train, miniguns, RPGs, and other prototype technology to give them the edge. However, with the death of Colonel Morozova, the loss of the foundry, and the production line, the True Sons once again scattered over D.C. and the surrounding area.
The True Sons were dealt a further crippling blow with the loss of Linette 'Dusk' Edwards, whose connection to the Black Tusk had allowed the True Sons to regain some form of stability. In particular, it made in particular Sergeant Daniels hungry for revenge against the Division.
The True Sons finally re-emerged more than 1 month after the death of Faye Lau with a new leader, a new aim, and even greater ambition - to take control of America. General Anderson, once a strategist for Ridgeway, now rebuilt the True Sons with the aid of Captain Lewis. Their goal by the end of Hidden Alliance is to get the Division to realize that they share a common enemy - Black Tusk and Calvin McManus. The True Sons have resurged in DC under Major Castillo, Sergeant Daniels, Lieutenant Chang, and Major Xander. The Division has once again mobilized to cripple the True Sons.
General Anderson, after the deaths of all four lieutenants and the resistance of the Division, has realized that his troops are no match for the Division and the Black Tusk. He has succeeded in rebuilding at least part of the alliance between the Black Tusk and the True Sons that collapsed with the death of Linette Edwards, and has allied himself with the Black Tusk. However, this may cause trouble for the True Sons, as Captain Lewis in particular has shown extreme worry over where the True Sons are going.
Anderson would begin plans to finalize their alliance by meeting with Natalya Sokolova at Pentco-Fairview Power Plant. Though Sokolova raised concerns with Anderson about Lewis' loyalty, Anderson brushed these off by assuring her that Lewis was loyal. His mind was later changed when Sokolova showed him a recording of Lewis speaking with Manny Ortega, with Sokolova encouraging Anderson to follow Lewis to see what he would do next.
Lewis would reach out to parley with Manny Ortega, as they had both served in the same JTF unit. Slowly, with the aid of plant engineer "Wally", Lewis built a force of True Sons who agreed with him, numbering around one hundred. However, Lewis' actions would be uncovered, and he would be captured alongside the majority of his supporters, although Wally escaped as she was on a supply mission at the time, eventually making her way to The Castle.
The Division would learn of Lewis's imprisonment, and looking to neutralize Anderson before the alliance was finalized, as well as rescue their new ally, launched an assault on the plant, engaging both True Sons and Black Tusk. Though Lewis was rescued, Anderson managed to escape, meeting with Sokolova and officially allying their two factions. It would be revealed that aside from Lewis and Wally, most if not all of the other rogue True Sons were dead or imprisoned.
The remaining True Sons under Anderson have since been working with the Black Tusk, first to assist Stovepipe's operations in D.C., and later to escort prisoners, though they have lost several officers at the hands of the Division, most notably being drone operator Lieutenant Bantam and sniper Beatrice "Auntie" Kaplan. Lewis himself would later be killed by a Hunter when the Black Tusk attacked The White House, with Wally continuing to aid the Division at The Castle.
General Anderson has not yet resurfaced, though it can be assumed he is laying low after his close call, and is continuing to lead the remaining True Sons.
During the Black Tusk effort to apprehend "Cassandra" at the Stranded Tanker, a group of True Sons under the command of Major McKenna would be deployed alongside Black Tusk led by Frank "Firecracker" Beckett, in order to stop the Division Agents who were also on site. The Division would eliminate this force alongside the Major and "Firecracker", as well as the Hunter sent afterwards. In one final effort, True Sons were sent to the scene via Black Tusk helicopters to eliminate the Division but were also killed. Frustrated, Sokolova would radio to ask if anyone was still alive before berating General Anderson for his troops' performance.
During the events of First Rogue, True Sons would take over multiple locations in Downtown East, prompting Aaron Keener to send the Division to drive them out as the second trial of his test. The Division would proceed to retake the True Sons occupied control points, eliminating large numbers of True Sons including five high-ranking officers.
Relationship with other factions[]
Being comprised of former JTF members and possessing military-grade technology, training, and discipline, the True Sons are seen by the other factions as the most dominant faction within D.C. However, they are also known throughout D.C. by all factions as vicious, cruel, and arrogant bullies who will not think twice about threatening, making examples of, or executing dissidents in order to ensure obedience from the local populace. They rely on casual cruelty and often dispense lethal punishment for randomly chosen violations.
The True Sons and their actions on Roosevelt Island were the catalyst for the formation of the Outcasts, who despise them for Ridgeway's quarantine and treatment of them, viciously torturing several True Sons that they captured and executing survivors of skirmishes. The True Sons are hostile but not actively at war with the Outcasts, and vice versa. An audio recording revealed that when the Outcasts overthrew and took over the Roosevelt Island quarantine center the JTF (before they became True Sons) decided to monitor them rather than send more men to try and neutralize them. It's possible that the True Sons are still monitoring their movements and actions as they are tied up in a war against the Hyenas and don't see the Outcasts as a threat to their supremacy, due to their focus being on consolidating power in their territory.
The True Sons despise the Hyenas, having been the catalyst for the formation of the alliance of the gangs, and has been unsuccessfully attempting to dislodge them in Federal Triangle and Judiciary Square, creating a blood-soaked no-mans-land where neither faction managed to successfully defeat the other. True Sons generally see the Hyenas as rats and opportunistic thugs as one can be heard saying "Hey Hyena, crawl back to your hole" when engaging in combat against them.
Following the death of their leader and the invasion of the Black Tusk, the True Sons are now at war with every faction and are vying for control of positions within D.C. There are some incidents where some skirmish took place between True Sons and Black Tusk [1]. This is most likely due to their aggressive disarmament policy and the fact that they have replaced them at the top of the Washington DC food chain. This would later change under the leadership of General Anderson, who successfully allied the remaining True Sons with the Black Tusk, and the two factions can now be seen fighting alongside each other.
Intelligence Brief[]
The True Sons currently sit at the top of the hostile faction "food chain" and are seeking to lock in their standing there. Division field intelligence indicates that the faction's primary goals are as follows:
- Expand territorial control to include key strategic points, access corridors, and symbolic landmarks.
- Control critical infrastructure and local resources.
- Dominate and incorporate any remaining population clusters in the Washington, D.C. metro area.
- Eliminate threats and rivals including other factions and groups as well as law enforcement elements like The Division and the JTF.
- Research the possibility of chemical or mechanical weapons, and if possible, create prototypes.
Overall, the True Sons appear to be disciplined and well-coordinated. Most members are trained in either police or military tactics, though few have been deployed overseas in conflict zones. The few True Sons who aren't veterans or ex-cops are either former criminals or recruited civilians and, as a result, sometimes exhibit unconventional combat tactics. But General Ridgeway has built a regiment for his troops that includes standard military training to keep them battle-ready.
Tactics and Weapons[]
“ It seems like these guys are salvaging and repurposing anything they can from this place. They're crafty bastards, I'll give them that. - Manny Ortega, on the True Sons Munitions Factory at the Air & Space Museum.”
The True Sons are more dangerous than the other factions in Washington, D.C. due to their superior gear, training and knowledge. They are not experienced in conflict, but they are well trained and coordinated. General Ridgeway's training system is systematic and thorough and has made sure the True Sons survived the turbulent winter and spring. As noted:
- Their training is evident due to the wide variety of weapons utilized, as seen compared to the limited range used by other factions.
- They mostly draw on candidates from the old police, military, fire, and medical services, but don't discriminate against those who are ex-criminals or recruited civilians.
- Their troops are some of the best-equipped and trained in D.C.
- This is both a blessing and a curse as they take longer to train and are more expensive to equip but are much more likely to succeed in battle.
- The True Sons have access to a wide variety of military grade equipment from across the world, such as US M4 carbines and M60s, Austrian and German SMGs such as the AUG and MP5, and Russian weapons such as the SASG-12.
- They also have access to a wide variety of ammunition types, favouring 9mm and shotgun shells, but also using 5.56 and 7.62 mm rounds, as well as explosives and rocket-propelled grenades.
- They also have access to a wide variety of advanced secondary equipment, such as ballistic vests, helmets, supplemental armor plates, ballistic goggles, radio sets and receivers, Geiger counters, flares, and defibrillators to name a few.
- They also have multiple research projects underway for utilization of remaining historical materials and chemicals, such as riot foam and missiles.
- They have a number of specialists, but the most common specialist combatants are those who utilize thrown explosives, CQC, or LMGs.
- Those specializing in anti-armor roles, chemical weapons and engineering are much rarer, but still are fairly common throughout the True Sons.
- Snipers and Medical units are the rarest True Sons - possibly due to the long training requirement to qualify as either.
- The True Sons are not rigidly bound to using military equipment or standard-issue weapons and ordinance.
- Often, the more dangerous bounty targets use scavenged technology from other factions such as the Outcasts, Hyenas and Division agents, such as stolen hand or 40 mm grenades, turrets, RC cars, support stations, and S.H.D technology.
- They have at least some kind of smuggling pipeline in and out of D.C., as there is little chance they could secure Riker MG nests otherwise.

Colonel Morozova |
She never talks about her past, but her soldiers sure love to gossip. The only thing they agree on is that she broke some kind of all-time record with her military academy exams, years ago, but after that no-one really knows where she went or what she did. She knows a lot about a lot, I'm willing to bet she's been all over the world doing bad shit, but honestly? I'm not even sure I want to know. She scares me more than anything, and I've never even heard her raise her voice. - Zach Young | United Ironworks |
Major Williams |
I avoid Williams like the plague. Most people do. A lot of True Sons seem to have come from criminal gangs or whatever, but he's got a ton of legit military experience. You can tell by the way he carries himself. He worships Morozova and does anything she says. Like, seriously anything, no matter how fucked up it is. If half the stories I have heard are true, he crossed the line so long ago, he can't even see it anymore. - Zach Young |
United Ironworks |
Captain Fieser |
Not exactly hard to find out about someone's past when they won't stop bragging about it. Fieser ran a fire station in D.C., blah, blah blah, promotion fast track, blah, blah, blah. Although he says it was pure merit, that definitely can't be true. They only thing this guy cares about is being the biggest, toughest, loudest asshole in the room. He clearly gives no shits about taking responsibility but loves to take credit. - Zach Young | United Ironworks |
Lieutenant Gray |
Gray used to be a big shot, superstar, surgeon somewhere. He stole a whole bunch of drugs, and like a dozen of his patients died in weird circumstances. When the news broke, his face was everywhere online. He doesn't know that I know. I've seen Green Poison break a lot of people, turning them twisted and sour. This guy was broken years ago - Zach Young |
