The LLDF, also known as the District Fleets, are the localized defensive force of the ULP. The LLDF is under the command of the District Governors.

All the sub-fleets, regardless of district, are part of a numbered system that alternates between districts. Thus, the first fleet of district one is Fleet One, the first fleet of district two is Fleet Two, the second fleet of district one would be Fleet Seven, and so on.

Livery
USN fleet livery is a standardized affair. The blue-and-grey "camouflage" is of course completely non-utilitarian in a high tech battle theater but it signal the unity of the troops and the planets allegedly. Each fleet has it's own distinctive set of identity "warpaint" set down when that fleet was formed. the greater fleet's markings are simple and bold, whereas the hundreds of system fleets and support fleets sport their own patterns, often influenced by local tradition.
Ship markings are monotone, and their color denotes which group the ship belongs to within the fleet. Squadron markings are limited to approved areas of hull, usually in the group's color. Individual ship markings consist of the vessel's USN standard ship ID, and the individual name of the vessel (although not usually on vessels below frigate size.
In addition to these standard markings, many crews take it upon themselves to personalize their craft, either commissioning one of the many freelance shipfitters or getting really drunk and going on a long spacewalk around the ship with a tank of piped grainers' and a hull surface reapplicator.
Although discreet, tasteful personalization are tolerated and even encouraged, the USN prefers that the appearance of the fleets is dignified and unoffensive. Many young captains have endured the ill-concealed amusement of shipstrip facility staff as they report under their furious commander's orders to have their vessel repainted - often suffering additionally with tremendous hangovers.
