My Joes are divided into operationally into Sabre Squadrons like Delta / SAS.
Each Sabre Squadron is led by a Major and divided into troops Air / Amphibious / Ruck or Mobility and Mountain. Each Troop has 16 operators led by a Captain or Warrant Officer that can be broken down into 2 teams of 8 or 4 teams of 4 as needed. The Troop designation only refers to Insertion method. All Joes are basic Airborne qualified and it's expected that over their career they will rotate through several Troops and squadrons picking up additional skills.
Each Sabre Squadron has a small HQ element attached to a mobile HQ akin to an ODA B Team.
They can be crudely broken down into;
Alpha - Light Infantry
Bravo - Heavy Infantry
Charlie - Combined Arms
Delta - Infantry
Gamma - Recon, Infiltration and Intelligence Collection
General Rey and Col Courage (with a small HQ element) are in charge of the Sabre Squadrons and they are as follows;
Alpha "America's Elite"
-Air Troop (HALO/HAHO) "Sky Patrol" (Sky Dive)
-Amphibious (Combat Diving) "Barracudas" (Wet Down)
- Mobility (Light Infantry) "Battle Rangers" (Falcon)
- Mountain "Adventure Team" (Boulder)
Bravo "America's Heroes"
-Air (Accelerator Suit) "Battleforce 3000" (Speed Metal)
-Mobility (Combined Anti Armor) "Battle Corps" (Roadblock)
-Mountain (Heavy Weapons) "Front Line" (Rock n Roll)
- Amphibious (SDV Craft Insertion) "Combat Team" (Torpedo)
Charlie "America's Mettle"
-Air (Forward Observer Glider Insertion) "Air Commandoes" (Barrel Roll)
- Mobility (Mobile Infantry) "Rapid Deployment Force" (Rapid Fire)
-Mobility (Armored Cavalry) "Tank Corps" (Thunderwing)
-Mobility (Artillery Battery) "Firing Line" (Red Leg)
Delta "Real Americans"
-Air (Helicopter Insertion) "Valor" (Airborne)
- Mobility (Infantry) "Screaming Eagles" (Rock)
- Amphibious (Craft Insertion) "Resolute" (Devil Dog)
- Mountain "Extreme" (Quick Strike)
Gamma "Spirit of America"
aka Ghost Squadron (only one with Female operators and are the ISA equivalent to the others Delta)
Ghost Recon is made up of all the 'forgotten Joes'...taking discarded code and file names and fusing them to make new characters. For example, in the UK Footloose was called Long Slide in the comics and his name was Andrew Mackay instead of Andrew Meyer. Hershel Dalton the ROC Heavy Duty is here too under the name Arsenal..etc
Spooky Gunship Unit "Ghost Riders" (Spectre)
Core Collection Cell "Spy Troops" (Scarlett)
Special Recon "Ghost Recon" (Agent Delta)
Infiltration Troop "Ninja Force" (Storm Shadow)
The Sabre Squadrons have a worldwide Area of Operation.
Further to the Sabre Squadrons, the Joes have smaller units with dedicated Areas of Operation. Based internationally alongside their respective SF Commands, they are first responders based on their AO.
NORTHCOM - 2 Law Enforcement / DOD units that operate together and pass the Posse Comitatus Act by having operators working directly with Law Enforcement.
Anti Piracy and Drug Squadron "DEF" led by Cutter
Law Enforcement and HRT "COPS" led by Bullet Proof
SOUTHCOM - Tiger Force (led by Claymore)
PACCOM - Eagle Force (led by Captain Eagle)
EUCOM - Arctic Force (led by Tundra and Sub Zero)
CENTCOM - Desert Force (led by Major Storm)
AFRICOM - Night Force (led by Psyche Out)
This way, even the Desert and Arctic guys get to be used beyond their Environmental Specialties.
Could you elaborate? :0 But seriously I'm stealing some of these as I know you use everyone. I'll reuse different versions if they are different enough. But sometimes a headswap will do the trick.
So Who are these guys, which figure, and what rank and branch of service?
Capt Eagle?
Spectre?
Devil Dog?
Rock?
Red Leg?
And are you bumping guys in rank as well?
