Tarkan (world) has hired this organization to see to system wide security concerns.
They in turn have arranged for the procurement and construction of a flotilla of twelve Echo class Patrol Torpedo Boats.
They have a unit of eight GSD Achilles class Combat Walkers fitted with six legs, thermal and light weapons. These walkers are repurposed and heavily modified Major Grund class automated agricultural harvesters. They are now used for dedicated close infantry support. There is a one thousand strong infantry battalion. There is a two-hundred strong command and support unit called the lord's retinue for reasons lost in antiquity. There are eight combat companies. Each company is one hundred strong and divided into four platoons of twenty five each. Four infantry companies are dedicated protected forces units equipped with vacuum suits, locally manufactured laser carbines, and compact man portable TAC missile launchers. They must be qualified in vacuum operations and zero G combat skills and receive a pay differential for those skills. They are also often technically trained in mechanical and electronic maintenance and repair. These elite mercenaries provide the eight man strong boarding parties on the company's Echo class Patrol Torpedo Boats. The other four companies are used as an internal security garrison. They operate within the habitats, domes and tunnels of the colony, starport, and mines. They wear flak body armor, and carry locally made assault rifles fitted with an integral under slung 4cm RAM grenade launcher. They wear Kevlar helmets with a 0.1kg radio and LI/IR faceplates. They have access to the same 3kg TAC missiles which are 4.5kg with their disposable package launchers. The unit's NCOs favor a popular bull-pup lay out 9mm HEI caseless SMG which features a cylindrical 30 round ammo drum. The lord's retinue has all the medical personnel which include 34 combat medics with 10kg medical first aid kits, nine ambulances with 9 drivers and 14 nurses. These ambulances carry and deploy company casualty clearing stations. There are also 7 trauma surgeons and two battalion aid stations. They have 40 mechanics and two mobile workshops for unit maintenance of vehicles, weapons and electronics. There are also 20 cooks and 10 field kitchens. The other 76 retinue members handle all other staff, logistics support, resupply and administrative concerns. That number also includes the unit's commanding officer, a Colonel Jessup and their executive officer, a Lieutenant Colonel Leroy Jenkins, senior command's staff officers who are majors and captains, and senior NCOs. Line companies have no organic support elements. Rumors persist that unlicensed, imported clones have been used to replace combat losses but no legal issues have been raised as yet.
The current unit commander, Colonel Nathaniel Jessup is recognizable by his white buzzcut hair, cigarette, a purple hooded cloak (IR camouflage), a nomad broadsword, bow string tied white surgical scrubs, a pair of worn sandals and a white wife beater tee shirt.
