In the real world, all ODA's are designated by a number. That number is usually 3 digits long, and the first digit indicates the Group to which they belong. For example, during the campaign at Tora Bora, Delta Force worked with ODA-555 "The Triple Nickel". That number tells us that it was 5th Group (Central Command - HQed at Ft. Campbell). I'm not sure if the numbering goes all the way back to Vietnam, or how long a specific ODA retains the number, but that's how they're designated.
So, for your Joe team, it would simply be a matter of assigning your Joe ODA Teams a numeric or alpha-numeric code. If you want Tiger Force to be its own ODA, you could simple call them ODA-001. If you wanted to get a little fancier, you could call them ODA-TF1 "Tango Foxtrot One". That way, if you've got a second ODA from Tiger Force, then that second team could just be ODA-TF2 "Tango Foxtrot Two". Night force could be ODA-003, or ODA-NF1 "November Foxtrot One"... or whatever you like.
I hope this helps. If you have the list of all your ODA teams, I'm happy to help you come up with a system that will work for you. Thanks for stopping by our thread; we're always happy to help and to have a new topic of discussion.
Just saw this post. That is perfect! Thank you both for the information.
I see my mistake was looking up Special Forces, when I should have looked up Mike Force.
This thread is awesome. I've picked up (stolen) most of my Joe set up from you guys on this thread.
