The National Security Agency (NSA) is a cryptologic intelligence agency of the United States Department of Defense responsible for the collection and analysis of foreign communications and foreign signals intelligence, as well as protecting U.S. government communications and information systems, which involves information security and cryptanalysis/cryptography.
The NSA is directed by at least a lieutenant general or vice admiral. NSA is a key component of the U.S. Intelligence Community, which is headed by the Director of National Intelligence. The Central Security Service is a co-located agency created to coordinate intelligence activities and co-operation between NSA and other U.S. military cryptanalysis agencies. The Director of the National Security Agency serves as the Commander of the United States Cyber Command and Chief of the Central Security Service.
By law, NSA's intelligence gathering is limited to foreign communications, although domestic incidents such as the NSA warrantless surveillance controversy have occurred.
An Unlikely Hero in a Chaotic World
Narrator: [Opening narration to Repo Chick] In the last years of the Cold War, the former Soviet Union developed a new weapon of mass destruction. Harnessing the awesome power of the Earth's own gravity, these GD-34 GROWLER bombs were smaller and more destructive than any battlefield munition previously deployed. In the late 20th century, the largest repossession company was GMAC, General Motors Acceptance Corporation. With the deregulation of the banks, GMAC and other less scrupulous companies were able to sell mortgages to poor people who couldn't possibly afford them. As the economy collapsed, repossession corrections became the United States' only non-military growth industries. Meanwhile, six GROWLERS remained unaccounted for.

Aunt de la Chasse: Since our last meeting, Pixxi, you have been arrested how many times?::Aldrich De La Chasse: Well, it's been eighteen, hasn't it? Eighteen times.::Repo Chick: Come on, pops, you know how it is. It's those fucking Beverly Hills cops. They be lying at my probation hearing, they be lying wait outside our gate.
Grandma De La Chasse: Holding up with strangers!::Aldrich De La Chasse: Hookups, mother. They call it "hooking up." Hookups.::Grandma De La Chasse: That's right.::Repo Chick: Oh, grandma, those are lies. I knew all five of those boys.
Grandma De La Chasse: Yes, get a job or you'll be disinherited.
Repo Chick: Why did you pick up the phone if it's the wrong number, asshole?
Lawyer: But the law says...::Sixsixsix: The law can go suck my ass. Right, Pixxi?::Repo Chick: Alright 666, take it easy. Let's hear what the jerk has to say and then if we don't like it, we'll just throw him down the stairs.
Lawyer: [to Pixxi] You're an adult. Yes. Over eighteen, twenty one presumably?::Sixsixsix: Don't go there.
Lawyer: When your family said that you were disinherited, did they offer up any sort of deal, a resolution to be un-disinherited?::Repo Chick: [unintelligible]... job.::Lawyer: I'm sorry, I didn't hear you.::Repo Chick: [Emotional] They told me to get a job!::Sixsixsix: [to lawyer] You bastard!
Sixsixsix: [to the tow truck driver] Hey! Hey! Hey! Frankenfuck! What the hell you think you're doing?
Plot
The story takes place in a alternate postwar period, in 1996, where Japan is divided. Hokkaido is ruled by the "Union" while Honshu and other southern islands are under US authority. A tall tower was built on Hokkaido, which could even be seen from Tokyo. In the summer of 1996, three middle-school students make a promise that they'll cross the border with a self-constructed plane and unravel the tower's secret, but their project was abandoned after the girl, Sayuri Sawatari, became mysteriously ill and transferred to Tokyo. Years later on the brink of another war Hiroki Fujisawa finds out that Sayuri had been in coma since then, and he asks Takuya Shirakawa to help him finding a way to wake her up.

Against all odds, a promise will be kept.
Hiroki Fujisawa: [Narrating] Now, those days are long gone... Our promised place was beyond those clouds.
Hiroki Fujisawa: [about Sayuri] She always said she felt like she was losing something. At the time... I was in middle school, and couldn't understand what she meant. But... those words had a strange effect on me.
Hiroki Fujisawa: [Narrating] At the time, we were drawn by two things: One was our classmate, Sawatari Sayuri... The other was the giant tower across the Tsugaru Strait. I was always looking up at that tower, I felt that something very precious waited there, I yearned to go there... One day... One day... I will go there.
Hiroki Fujisawa: [Narrating] Back then, I felt that this place, this time would last forever. The tower I admired that lay beyond the clouds... became the place of a precious promise. At that moment we weren't afraid of anything. But in reality, the world and the flow of time kept on going all around me.
Sayuri Sawatari: The sun... is taking its time setting...::Hiroki Fujisawa: [Narrating] That was a really special summer. But the world around me would betray me again and again after this. Since that day three years ago, I haven't seen Sawatari once.
Sayuri Sawatari: The chill wind seemed to blow from the depths of space, and the scent of a different universe was present.
Sayuri Sawatari: The sky, the clouds, the ruined city... No matter how far I walk, nobody appears.
Hiroki Fujisawa: [Narrating] Once I got to my room and shut the door, it felt like the bones in my body were tearing through my skin... as I was overcome with an intense, heartfelt pain.
Hiroki Fujisawa: [Narrating] Living alone, the nights seemed to last forever. When I couldn't pass the time effectively, I went to a nearby train station and pretended to wait for someone.
Hiroki Fujisawa: It's as if I've spent my days holding my breath under cold water... It's as if... It's as if...::Sayuri Sawatari: It's as if... I'm the only one left in the world.
Sabes que elegistes un destino y no te vas a echar atras
Sabes cual es tu camino y no daras un paso atras
Estas contento con tu gente, esa es la verdad
Una familia diferente, a todas las demas
Solo tres letras bastaran, para hacerlos callar
Non servium army n.s.a
Condenados y orgullosos, la respuesta radical
Condenados y orgullosos, amistad y fidelidad
Nuestras consignas estan claras, nunca cambiaran
Dispuestos para dar la cara, frente a los demas
Vuestros insultos dan igual, no escuchamos
Nuestra respuesta es radical, atacamos
Condenados y orgullosos, la respuesta radical
Condenados y orgullosos, amistad y fidelidad
Nuestras consignas estan claras, nunca cambiaran
Dispuestos para dar la cara, frente a los demas
Vuestros insultos dan igual, no escuchamos
Nuestra respuesta es radical, atacamos
Son tres letras que marcan una vida
Es el nombre de la santa familia
Condenada por la envidia de unos cuantos, pero nos da igual
No pediremos perdon
Y es que hay algo que tenemos muy claro
Es que todo el mundo sabe donde estamos
Si tienes algun problema, ven y dinoslo
Te dare la solucion
Envidiosos, rastreros, no teneis valor, sois lo peor
Mierda de gente embustera, engreida
Apunalan de noche y sonrien de dia
Sois como el cuento del rico villano
Que tira la piedra y esconde la mano
