I can't remember the specifics but the implication was that the US air mobile group is actually paid for by US oil companies.

Here's a wikipedia entry on the real life Guatemala/Belize dispute:

Anyone know what real life UK forces were stationed in Belize in 1994?

and would the invasion of Belize even happen in T2K? Guatemala with US support was fighting a communist style insurgency in the 80's.
