The UN offices in New York are probably destroyed, certainly not in use anyway except as perhaps shelter for the diehards. |
I think you're pretty spot on with that.
I do seem to recall something I read that says that the UN General Assembly fell apart at some point but I can't recall which year it happened or where I read it. It could well have been in Armies of the Night - that would certainly be logical - although it
might have been in the NATO vehicle guide (oddly enough!). It certainly has a plate of a Canadian vehicle in UN colours serving in a UN Peacekeeping force in (I think) Sri Lanka, so it might have been in the blurb for that plate.
