This mod includes three new workshop objects: A Minutemen Campfire, Minutemen Bunks, and a Minutemen Watchtower. These objects can be found in your workshop menu under the Defense->Guard Posts category, and are limited to one of each per settlement.

They also have unsafe storage and are frequented by a variety of minutemen. Sometimes you'll find the minutemen are guarding settlers who will want to live at your settlement. Other times they may have a trader tagging along. But as often as not, it'll just be Minutemen.
These waystations can be attacked, and if all of the NPCs die, they may be temporarily abandoned. Don't worry though! The waystations don't stay abandoned forever, so you shouldn't feel pressed to help just because you see a flare go up.
