Gray Panthers: Battle for Earth

The year is 2126. It has been thirty years since Iran nuked Washington, D.C.

America has traded security for liberty following the attack, with the suspension of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The Constitution isn’t even taught in school anymore. In this environment, Dan “D2” Daniels, a retired Army NCO of the old breed, sworn to protect the Constitution, finds a crashed spaceship and learns that Earth will soon be invaded. Using the technology from the spaceship, Dan forms an army of fellow senior veterans with two missions: first, to revive the republic they had sworn their allegiance to, and second, to save that republic—and the world along with it.

Their first foray includes converting the CVN-80, otherwise known as the USS Enterprise, a rusting aircraft carrier waiting to be scrapped, into the first ship of the new space fleet of the Gray Panthers.
