Introduction

It goes without saying that, should you be in possession of this document, you’re already well established with the concept of our legions and their areas of expertise. However we like to ensure we cover our bases, and to that end we will be discussing each of the legions within GDS at a summary level to ensure all legionnaires have an understanding of their counterparts.

While we do our best to ensure as much intermingling between legions as possible, it’s understandable that certain details may fly under the radar for most legionnaires. A legionnaire will instinctively know that the Medical Legion handles medical related matters, but do they understand the full extent of what that entails?
Would a legionnaire in the Armored Legion know that those in the Mechanical Legion handle not only vehicle repairs, but also facility and structure engineering?
Would a legionnaire in the Administrative Legion know that the Armored Legion has legionnaires who specialize entirely in moving dirt around to provide a strategic advantage?

To that end, this section will help clarify the roles and responsibilities that each legion handles within GDS. In addition, we’ll cover information such as:

· Legion headquarters.

· Legion LOS codes, of which we’ll use default placeholder versions.

· Legion leadership.

· Notable squadrons within that legion, including a brief overview of any unclassified work done by their special operations groups.

Before we continue there are two areas to cover: founding squadrons and special operations (spec ops).

Within each legion, the first three squadrons (1^st, 2^nd, 3^rd) are referred to as founding squadrons, and often are comprised of legionnaires who have the most experience within that legion. Members of these squadrons are not only legionnaires who have been present since the beginning of the legion, but also those who have demonstrated the most skill and aptitude in their field.
That is to say, a founding squadron can be made up of 50-year-old legionnaires working alongside someone whose 23 and has met the criteria to be part of their operations. As such, even if the original members leave in due time, joining one of their legion’s founding squadrons will remain as one of the pinnacles for a legionnaire to reach within their career.

Regarding special operations, their number varies from legion to legion.
A spec ops segment of a legion could be comprised of anything from a singular squadron up to a full element. As an example, Cormorant Works in the Science Legion is comprised of 120+ legionnaires, while Third Opinion in the Medical Legion only has 10 members. Entry into spec ops teams within GDS is, undoubtedly, one of the toughest goals anyone could shoot for.

We truly do hope that we’ve provided you with an environment that makes such a goal possible.
