Mississippi has a professional military as most nations measure it. Most of their equipment is primarily geared towards providing fast and responsive security for their various gaming districts on Earth and beyond. The majority of the senior enlisted and officers are well-paid volunteers who spend decades in service. The casinos encourage these career soldiers to leave after their second or third decade to avoid stagnation in the ranks, though the best of them often return after a decade or two in the civilian sector. This keeps the military small while providing them with a large pool of well-trained leaders capable of being rotated back into service at a moment’s notice. This proved invaluable when The War came upon us all, and they rapidly expanded to meet the new alien threat.
