From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
A Veteran Guardsman Kill Team is a unit within the Astra Militarum Command Structure.[1a]
Description
Kill Team Units are mobilised ad-hoc by an Imperial Commander from the most competent soldiers under his command. Many are survivors who have demonstrated their competence through a combination of skill and luck.[1a]
