Sabre Corp
Following the devastating troop losses during the Borg War the Federation’s Marine Corp was absorbed along with several other smaller organizations into a new Federation Mobile Infantry armed service encompassing most planetary based assault and protection duties. This change left a hole the marines filled as starship based special recon and assault troops. Starfleet decided to fill that role again by reactivating a little known corp of special ops called Sabre. Standing for S.pecial A.ssault B.oarding R.econ and E.vasion. Sabre's were to be assigned to outward bound starships on a case by case basis due to the organizations low number of trained available recruits.

Chain of Command
Chain of Command Ship CO's Command Status is fully respected.
SCO's are under the command of the Ship's CO in the same way the TFSCO is under the command of the TFCO.
TFCO
|
|
|
TFSCO (Min Rank Lt Col)
|
|
|
Ship's SCO (Max Rank Major) Commands 1 Sabre Squadron Consisting of 6 Troops (A trooper is a specialist team member, highly skilled in his or her field). SCO's can also take temporary direct operational command of a "platoon" which is if necessary two to four squads, i.e. experience needed.
Depending on the requirements of the mission a platoon can consist of 2- 4 "Squads" (See Below) at the moment the squads are designated as:
Zero G Squad
Responsible for all combat/recon/rescue activities in any environment with low/high gravity, either planetary or orbital
Air Squad
Air insertion unit, consisting of shuttle pilots and HAHO (High Altitude High Opening) and HALO skydiving specialists (High Altitude Low Opening)
All Terrain Squad
Hazardous Terrain unit specializes in combat and recon/target acquisition, in areas with difficult terrain, such as Mountainous, Volcanic, Subterrainian, Heavy Jungle and Desert Areas. Sometimes used in conjunction with Fleet Air Support for "painting cloaked targets"
Boat Squad
Amphibious Combat Unit, Experts in all aspects of water (or any substance with water like properties) based operations. The squad consists of liquid breathing divers, conventional scuba divers and waterborne insertion specialists.
Argo(mobility) Squad
Specializes in the use of Special Ops vehicles such as Argos. Members of this troop are highly skilled in all aspects of Mobility, such as land navigation, driving, alien technology salvage and maintenance.
"Squads" are manned by a mix and match approach under the mandate of the ship's SCO (in conjunction with the Ships CO). This means each squad can swap in and out personnel from another squad depending on what is needed for any specific operation, this lets our simmers gain specialist training and abilities in every kind of squad (just like the real SAS. For example Cpl A from the Boat squad specialises in Scuba Diving, but is sent on a Argo squad mission and learns Land Navigation Skills (you get the idea)
The rest of the Chain of Command breaks down like this:
Ship's SXO (Max Rank Lt Maj) (assists SCO, and takes command of entire Sabre Squadron if required, also can take temp operational command of a single platoon if SCO requires)
|
|
|
Squad Leader (If not commanded by SCO/SXO) (min Rank 2nd Lt or Sgt/Max Rank 1st Lt or Master Sgt.)
|
|
|
Squad Specialist (Any Rank Bellow Squad Leader Officer or NCO)
|
|
|
Squad Member One of 3 (Lower Ranks) (Standard Special Opps Trained) Consists of: Demolitions expert, paramedic and Sniper/Recon (coupled with their Specialist "Squad" training (Air, Boat, etc)

What all this hopefully means is FE's Sabre unit will be a highly flexible, superbly trained fighting force, ready to be utilised by SF in its relatively weakened state within the FE timeline.
