Division 5, SpecForce
Covert Operations
A unit within Division Five of the Alliance SpecForce - the "Fighting Fifth" - the Special Reconnaissance Regiment is a special force that was created to bridge the gap between SpecForce and Alliance SpecOps. The unit provides an infrastructure whereby SpecForce can provide support to Special Operations, and also so that the organisation can conduct such missions on its own, without the reliance on specialist Special Operations Groups. More importantly, it allowed the operations to be conducted entirely under the umbrella of SpecForce, without any complications in jurisdiction and chain-of-command.
The unit was originally formed as a sole team - Taskforce Dorn, aka. "Dorn Force" - as the brainchild of Colonel Sogan Dalgas. While SpecForce did already regularly engage in operations that combined elements from various Regiments, most operations of that nature occurred in isolation. Dalgas saw the potential benefits of a permenant unit of that nature, that would be able to make use of that cooperation and assorted skill set, as well as benefit from small-team tactics, and from the familiarity of having worked with the same individuals on numerous past occasions.
Following the success of Dorn Force's early missions, Alliance Command agreed to support Dalgas in expanding on his idea, adding in the personnel and resources to properly establish the infrastructure for SpecForce Special Operations.
Headquarters
When the unit was initially established, Dorn Force was temporarily based aboard the Nebulon-B Frigate Intrepid. Following the establishment of the Special Reconnaissance Regiment however, a larger and better equipped facility was required; the Intrepid was subsequently reassigned to Task Force 75.
In selecting a base of operations for the Regiment, Colonel Dalgas wanted somewhere that was central to many of the areas in which the unit was expected to work: in easy reach of the Core and the Outer Rim, and also proximate to several of the Rebellion's allied sectors and safeworlds. Ultimately, the Roche Asteroids - home of the Verpines, and the location where the B-Wing was developed - were selected, for their central location along the Perlemian Trade Route.
Specifically, the Special Reconnaissance Regiment has its headquarters on the asteroid Gallia.
Branches
Currently, the Regiment "officially" consists of four units:
Taskforce Unit Aurek is a unit of Pathfinders from Dalgas' former Regiment. They are specialists in covert deployment into enemy territory, and are trained to gather basic reconnaissance and intelligence upon which the Regiment can base it's operations. They also fulfill a secondary role as Paratroopers providing combat support for Dorn Force during surface-based operations.
Taskforce Unit Besh is a unit of SpaceOps Troopers - Marines - seconded from Colonel Regulus Starborn's Regiment; also part of the Fighting Fifth. They specialise in close quarters combat aboard starships and orbital facilities, and in covertly - and overtly - boarding those vessels from space. They provide combat support to Dorn Force in these situations; they are also sometimes deployed for surface combat that takes place in close quarters conditions.
Taskforce Unit Cresh was a unit of 5th Regiment Infiltrators, in which Charlotte Tur'enne of Dorn Force used to serve. After the unit was wiped out on a mission, the unit was "reassigned" to the Special Reconnaissance Regiment to ensure that the unit designation would not be recycled: a means of preserving the memories of the men lost.
Taskforce Unit Dorn, better known as Dorn Force, is a commando unit composed of members from any and all Regiments within SpecForce. Unlike most units, the majority of its members are officers. Dorn's operations often conform to a vaguely Infiltrator profile, but the skills involved allow the unit more scope - and also autonomy and self-sufficiency - in it's operations, and its approach.
In addition, the Special Reconnaissance Regiment includes a range of personnel and facilities to provide intelligence and technical support to these units.
Members
Colonel Sogan Dalgas:
Formerly the commander of the 2nd Regiment of Pathfinders within Division 5, Dalgas initially formed Dorn Force as a unit within his command. When the concept was ratified by Alliance Command, he was placed in command of a new Special Reconnaissance Regiment, as a separate command within Division 5.
Alexander Tur'enne:
A former weapons designer and researcher at a Frohad Galactic Firearms facility on Corellia. He chose to defect to the Rebel Alliance, and was aided by members of Dorn Force, including his sister. He currently works with all the units of the Special Reconnaissance Regiment in a tech support and design role, as the regiment's Quartermaster.
Maxx Elgrin:
A smuggler who regularly works with Alliance Intelligence and other branches of the Rebellion, Elgrin often works with Dorn Force in particular to provide them with assistance in gathering local intelligence, establishing contacts with local resistance fighters, and also in covertly infiltrating the team into enemy territory.
