Nuclear Emergency Support Team

The Nuclear Emergency Support Team, or NEST for short, is a faction in the Apocalypse storyline and Apocalypse III: Divided Destiny storyline. Unlike the real life version, however, the NEST team is military-based.

Apocalypse
In the Apocalypse storyline, the NEST team is seen in only a few missions. They were formed into the International Creature Elimination Force at one point.

Apocalypse III: Divided Destiny
The NEST team is seen once again in the Apocalypse III: Divided Destiny storyline. This version of the NEST team remains the same. When four nuclear missiles were launched by Mitchell Carver, Trevor Reznik, William Cullen, and Eric Michaelson at the infected part of the Ark of Eden, the NEST team was called to handle the situation. With the radiation from the nuclear missiles settling down, radioactive zombies emerged. The whole Nuclear Emergency Support Team was sent to hold back the zombies. At one point, the whole team, except Carver, Reznik, Cullen, and Michaelson were killed by zombies. When these four soldiers became trapped in the Ark of Eden's core reactors, they had no choice but to destroy them. They did, which saved half the Ark of Eden and killed all of the zombies. However, victory was bitter sweet; with half the Ark of Eden gone, the other half began to sink into the sea. Plan Epsilon X was launched, which marked the point in history where humankind once again had to flee into Space.

Apocalypse IV: Imminent Impact
The NEST team is succeeded by the Galactic Emergency Response Team, which not only deals with crises like a nuclear emergency, but also plagues, uprisings, rebellions, assassinations, captures, possible planetary collisions, and a lot more.
