Each member may hold up to two advanced infantry certifications. The TACP certification does not count toward this limit.
Medics are responsible for their team’s well being, it is their responsibility to keep a team operational to the best of their ability. On certain occasions, medics may have to perform medical on enemies to preserve prisoners for capture and interrogation. If the team leader is wounded, the medic may even have to take command to keep the team functioning until the team leader is back up. Medics will have to make difficult decisions during firefights and in dire situations, but they are expected to remain calm and collected through it all.
Marksmen are responsible for executing long-range shots quickly and accurately, primarily through the use of a DMR or sniper rifle and a telescopic sight. Marksmen are vulnerable at close range and must rely on their teammates to eliminate those threats. A marksman can be integrated with a fireteam or squad to extend their engagement range or can operate at the platoon level as a sniper/spotter team, providing intelligence and long-range fire support.
Specialists provide the operational commander with a wide variety of fire support and reconnaissance options. They can improve a team’s firepower through the use of MMG and MAT weapons, or operate at the platoon level as one of four weapons teams: Mortar, HMG, GMG, or HAT. They are also trained in spotting and light reconnaissance via the use of backpack carried drones. Specialists can provide a heavy base of fire at the cost of mobility and close range effectiveness.
Combat Engineers are the main supply line of the force. Running fuel and munitions to the front, repairing vehicles, and fortifying FOBs and OPs. They also are the explosive experts, demolishing buildings, vehicles, and any other assets, while also being able to defuse IEDs and minefields of explosives safely.
A Tactical Air Control Party (TACP) is a rear echelon team comprised of a Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) and a Radio Operator, Maintainer, And Driver (ROMAD). In some situations, a single JTAC or ROMAD may be assigned to a team, squad, or platoon leader. TACP’s fill the radio communications gap between leaders and any other asset on the battlefield, be it another squad, a reconnaissance team, an attack helicopter, or an artillery platoon.
