Ultra Garrison is a fictional defense force in Ultraseven, formed by Commander Kaoru Kiriyama. It acted more as an elite fighting force than an investigative unit but their duties did include such operations. They were an umbrella organization of the Earth Defense Force, the same organization that backed all the Attack Teams of the Showa Universe save GUYS.
