Carlyle's Commandos?  Wait, that's taken.  (I hope someone gets that!)<br/><br/>Or maybe fate or meeting in a bar caused everyone to stay together.  They might have all pissed off the only other possibly employer and thus formed a unit for mutual self defense.<br/><br/>We probably don't have too much of a command structure, or need one, so it could be more democratic.  There's an aerospace commander who's in charge, Van Carlyle and a ground commander for the Mechwarriors.  Everyone (including the head tech) gets one vote in the big decisions, but the two commanders get two by dint of their positions?<br/>
