The Perimeter Patrol is responsible for guiding hundreds of tiny planets, including Rondos, where the Patrol is based, Gykos, Malooka, Menos, Pako, Xarpot, Rako, Zaloo, and Danaron, located on the outer fringe of our solar system. The patrol operates on a code: Treat planet natives and fellow patrolmen with honor, and display absolute obedience to orders. If a patrolman gets “space sickness”, a type of mental breakdown, he is set adrift in a “space lifeboat” to die. The members include Captain Martin Hawkins, Commandant Luther Mynot, Lieutenant Groll Mynot, Lieutenant Garth, Space-Corporal Bart Bonner (dishonorably discharged), Patrolman Jessup, Technician Wanda Carter, and Technician Arnold Brill. The Perimeter Patrol dress uniforms are black, red, and yellow. Mission uniforms are more casual yet maintain the red, black, and yellow color scheme, though the color arrangement differs. The mission uniforms will sometimes be worn with a red cape and a red beret. A third uniform for exploratory missions on planets is of a rugged, green and yellow construction. Green short pants and green short sleeved shirts are accent by yellow belts of cloth, yellow backpacks and helmets. Originally, the Perimeter Patrol’s logo was a backwards letter “P” next to a regular letter “P”. In a later story, the backward and forward “P” are replaced by a vertical line surmounted with an oval shape.
