'''Taskforce Unit Dorn''' is the official designation of '''Dorn Force''', a team established by Colonel [[Sogan Dalgas]] to help bridge the gap between the [[Alliance SpecForce]] and [[AllianceSpecOps]] Commands. Dalgas determined that there was a need for a unit that could perform the same kind of missions as the existing SpecOps Mission Groups, but fell within the SpecForce chain of command; integrated with and reliant on the remainder of SpecForce, rather than completely independent of it. He believed that such a degree of cooperation would allow the unit to exploit advantages not normally available to SpecOps; and would also remove some of the jurisdictional complications of joint operations between SpecOps and SpecForce.

'''Taskforce Unit Dorn''' - the official designation of '''Dorn Force''' - was established by Colonel [[Sogan Dalgas]] to help bridge the gap between the [[Alliance SpecForce]] and [[Alliance SpecOps]] Commands. It combined specialists from across all seven SpecForce Regiments with operatives and mercenaries: the result was a unit with the versatility of SpecOps but nested within the SpecForce chain of command.

It wasn't the first time that SpecForce had drawn together individual candidates from various backgrounds to form a unit: it was a staple of many major Rebel operations. However, such units usually only existed for the duration of that operation; Sogan's team called for the permenant assignment of personnel from all Regiments, under a single permanent command. The initial members of Dorn Force were drawn from personnel who had participated in a mission to [[Baraboo]], and thus had prior experience working together. The unit was first deployed on a mission to infiltrate an Imperial facility on [[Ruuria]]; this proved a great success, and with more to go along with it, Alliance Command agreed to officially endorse the team.

The unit was considered something of an experiment by SpecForce; after a number of successful missions it was attached directly to High Command so that it could be used more effectively on an Alliance-wide scale. For a time the unit was based at [[Shantipole Station]] - the facility in the [[Roche Asteroids]] where the [[B-Wing Assault Fighter]] had been developed - before being rehomed at SpecForce Command on [[Bothawui]].

Taskforce Unit Dorn - the official designation of Dorn Force - was established by Colonel Sogan Dalgas to help bridge the gap between the Alliance SpecForce and Alliance SpecOps Commands. It combined specialists from across all seven SpecForce Regiments with operatives and mercenaries: the result was a unit with the versatility of SpecOps but nested within the SpecForce chain of command.

The unit was considered something of an experiment by SpecForce; after a number of successful missions it was attached directly to High Command so that it could be used more effectively on an Alliance-wide scale. For a time the unit was based at Shantipole Station - the facility in the Roche Asteroids where the B-Wing Assault Fighter had been developed - before being rehomed at SpecForce Command on Bothawui.

Unfortunately, the unorthadox composition of Dorn Force led to a number of complications. Discipline issues were a constant problem, ultimately leading to the reassignment of Captain Mara Tallen. When problems with local intelligence led to a catastrophic mission failure by the team, General Torrsk Oruo'rel took the opportunity to "end the experiment", with the intention that it's members would go their separate ways.

Several Dorn Force veterans continued to serve together, however; and after a particularly successful one-shot mission for SpecForce, they eventually found themselves joining the crew of the Novgorod.

Rebel Dawn -
Major John Glayde and Lieutenant Charlotte Tur'enne are deployed undercover to Corellia, in order to facilitate the defection of an Imperial weapons developer. To their surprise, the developer turns out to be the Lieutenant's brother, Alexander Tur'enne.

Darkest Before the Dawn -
A small Dorn Force strike team is deployed to Naboo, to rescue and retrieve Maren Dirge: a SpecForce operative with a blown cover. First they need to find her however, in the forests and swamps of Naboo, before the Imperial patrols do.
