no edit summary
A typical Command Squad includes:
*[[Vox-caster|Vox-Operator]]: the vox-operator receives specialist training with Guard communications equipment and often acts as an aide or adjutant to an officer. Some Vox-operators are referred to as '''Comms-Officers''' and appear to have some level of NCO authority despite being ranked as simple Guardsmen.{{Fn|1a}}
*[[Medic]]: always a [[veteran]] and equipped with some form of [[Medi-pack]] allowing him to patch up wounded fellow Guardsmen, a Medic is also a soldier, meaning he is as skilled at combat as any normal Guardsmen.{{Cite Marker End}} Such battlefield medics can be referred to as '''Corpsman''' or even '''Orderly''' and do not typically rank as officers. Command Squad medics are not always true members of a regiment's medical staff, meaning they are not fully qualified '''Medical Officers''' (also known as '''Doctors''' and/or '''Surgeons'''). Such personnel often stay in the rear of the regiment, awaiting incoming casualties.{{Fn|1a}}
*Standard-Bearer: also typically a veteran soldier, a standard-bearer has the honour of carrying a [[Company Standard|Company]] or [[Regimental Standard]]{{Fn|1a}}.
