Here is what I found on SEALs structure at navyseals.com-
SEAL Teams
NSW has eight Navy SEAL Teams. The odd-numbered Teams (1, 3, 5 and 7) work for Group ONE in Coronado, CA, and 2, 4, 8, and 10 for Group TWO in Little Creek, VA. A SEAL Team is commanded by a Navy Commander (O-5) and is composed of a HQS element and eight operational 16-man SEAL Platoons. These platoons rotate in a continuous and rigorous planned cycle of training and overseas deployments. Platoons can be structured to operate as 8-man Squads, 4-man Fire Teams, or 2-man Sniper/Reconnaissance Teams, as required. It is this organizational structure that makes the NSW force light, mobile, swift, flexible, effective and virtually undetectable.
SEAL Platoon
A SEAL platoon consists of two junior officers and 14 enlisted. It is led by the more senior of the two officers, a Navy Lieutenant (O-3). A SEAL Platoon is the largest operational element normally used to conduct a tactical mission. More often, SEALs operate as 8-man Squads or 4-man Fire Teams. All SEALs are BUD/S graduates; are dive, parachute, and demolitions qualified; and have completed an advanced 15-week SEAL Qualification Training.
It also included the bit about Task Unit Core Skills- Task Unit core skills include: Sniper, Breacher, Communicator, Maritime/Engineering, Close Air Support, Medical, Point-man/Navigator, Primary Driver/Navigator (Rural/Urban/Protective Security), Heavy Weapons Operator, Sensitive Site Exploitation, Air Operations Master, Lead Climber, Lead Diver/Navigator, Explosive Ordnance Disposal, and Technical Surveillance.
Based on that here's how my Joe SEAL Platoon shapes up:
OIC/Lead Diver/Navigator: Torpedo (CWO5) {several filecards list Diving Instructor as SMS}
2IC/Sensitive Site Exploitation/Interrogator: Wet Down (CWO5)
Sniper:
Breacher:
Communicator: Topside (PO1)
Maritime Engineer: Deep Six (CPO)
Close Air Support: Rampart (PO3)
Medical: Link Talbot, [Codename: Orca] (PO3)
Pointman/ Navigator: Wet Suit (PO1) {v12 filecard gives his SMS as Pointman/ Navigator}
Primary Driver/ Navigator: Night Fox (PO2)
Heavy Weapons Operator:
Air Operations Master: High Tide {filecard says training included Airborne School}
Lead Climber:
Explosive Ordnance Disposal: Depth Charge (PO2)
Technical Surveillance: Tracker (CPO)
Advanced Special Operations:
Still need to find the right fit for Mariner (CPO) and Harpoon and come up with more guys for the open slots
Edit: have also seen Interrogator and Advanced Special Operations included in Core Skills so I added those jobs.
