When the U. S. Marshals super hero branch was forced to close up shop, the government was faced with the fact that they had failed again at establishing a federal police force. This department then set out to create a force that would do some good for mankind; to serve and protect.

It was a year later, when Joe Chillen was elected to President of the United States, that this branch was finally able to see some fruition to their efforts. Strikeforce was formed as an experimental branch of the United States Marshals, operating in conjunction with the Los Angeles Police Department, head up locally by Peter McMurphy (the former Champion of Justice Fireforce). Agents without innate powers were granted access to power armor manufactured by Adam's Industries (based upon the power armor created for Fireforce) and given special training in super villain restraining equipment. The agents were also trained in using the better side of valor, knowing when the situation is beyond their capabilities and to call on heroes for help.

When that branch proved to be a success in Los Angeles, another branch opened in Chicago, head up by former Secret Service agent Jerry Johnson. This branch worked well with the local hero group and again proved to be a success. The a third Strikeforce office opened in Washington DC, headed up by Fredrick Wyte, and the operation is in the process of expanding to other cities throughout the United States. Houston, Texas is the next intended city for development. In addition to this, the organization is also looking to work more intimately with the various super teams in hopes of creating a more unified front against crime.
