From the street level chaos of the NYPD, the first responders on the scene, the citywide and statewide emergency mobilization, to the National Security Council convening inside the White House Situation Room and the Pentagon, with the chaos and experience of civilians caught in between. As this world changing event plays out. Following the American counteroffensive to retake midtown Manhattan, and the immediate aftermath of the disaster itself, as the US eventually prepare to step through and enact their retribution.
