Overview
The Rapid Response Teams are elite groups of Special Forces units used by Star Fleet Special Operations Command that are known to spearhead ground assault or boarding operations alongside regular troops or conduct "Black Op" missions behind enemy lines. Rapid Response Teams are also employed in Search and Rescue (SAR) scenarios where regular Star Fleet personnel or even other Special Forces units would be ill-equipped to deal with the task at hand. Drawn from the cream of Special Forces operators, teams are often organised down into Platoon or Squad strength teams and assigned to the fastest vessels dedicated to the rapid response role.
Organisation
During times of conflict, a Rapid Response Team is roughly equivalent to a platoon in size. A team is usually commanded by a Lieutenant, though more senior officers may take command if the situation warrants it, with around a quarter of the members selected from a pool of trained officers and the rest made up of enlisted personnel with years, if not decades of experience.
During times of peace, a Rapid Response Team is smaller, equivalent to a squad in size. Still commanded by a Lieutenant, less officers are selected to fill out the squad and as such peacetime teams are usually comprised almost entirely of enlisted personnel.
Notable Teams/Team Members
