The 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta (also known as "Combat Application Group" and "Delta"), initially formed in the late 20th century and re-formed again in 689 AS, is a Special Operations Forces division made up from the most distinguished and skilled personnel from all of Liberty's military branches. Highly trained and efficient and equipped with state-of-the-art weaponry, Delta operators conduct various asymmetric warfare operations in order to enforce Libertonian interests, on the ground as well as in space. Delta only formally belongs to the [[Liberty Army]]; they only answer to LSOCOM, the Department of Defense and the President himself, and are given a degree of freedom in their operations unthinkable of in any other unit.

The '''1st Special Activities Division''' - commonly referred to as '''Delta''' after the unit's former military designation - is the [[Liberty Security Force]]'s main paramilitary operations wing. It's tasks include counter-terrorism, counter-espionage, espionage, psychological, political and economical warfare as well as covert action.<br><br>
 
 
== Objectives ==
 
 
 
The 1st's objectives include, but are not limited to, counterterrorism operations against both foreign and domestic groups, dealing with hostage situations, protecting high-level VIPs, forward reconnaissance, raids, and surgical strikes, and they are also known to be among the first units on the ground during a planetary assault. What they are not is a police force. Low-level piracy and smuggling are not among Delta's concerns.

<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
 
 
 
== Ranks ==
 
 
 
The 1st does not directly recruit civilians into their ranks. All 1st operators have served in the Liberty Army (or, in some exceptional cases, the Navy) and reached at least the rank of Sergeant or First Lieutenant (Second Lieutenants serving in the 1st are exclusively former enlisted soldiers who attended officer school).
 
 
 
=== Non-commissioned officers ===
 
NCOs are specialized officers while commissioned officers are generalized officers. In the 1st, NCOs usually do the grunt work as well as tactical planning (to some degree), while commissioned officers do both strategical and tactical planning.
 
 
 
* E-5 Sergeant (Fireteam member)
 
* E-6 Staff Sergeant (Fireteam member or junior squad leader, in charge of special administrative tasks)
 
* E-7 Sergeant First Class (Fireteam or junior squad leader)
 
* WO-1 Warrant Officer (Fireteam leader of junior squad leader)
 
* CWO-* Chief Warrant Officer (From CWO-1 - squad leader to CWO-5 - Executive Officer)
 
 
 
=== Commissioned officers ===
 
Generalized officers. They have attended [[West Point Academy]] or Officer school.
 
* O-1 Second Lieutenant (Squad or fireteam leader)
 
* O-2 First Lieutenant (Squad leader or Junior Platoon Leader)
 
* O-3 Captain (Platoon leader)
 
* O-4 Major (Platoon/Company leader)
 
* O-5 Lieutenant Colonel (Battalion leader)
 
 
 
Characters ranking Colonel and above usually won't do field operations and thus will mainly act as characters in 1st-related RP stories. Some may play the role of a warship commander however during special ingame events.

Only the Liberty Military's most promising Special Operations Forces Officers are given the opportunity to opt in for the extensive program turning these already more-than-capable men and (as of the 6th Century) women into transhuman agents of one of the most powerful unconventional warfare units Sirius has ever seen. After they complete their training and augmentation at a place called '''"The Farm"''', the clandestine 1st operators (colloquially known as "spies") are ready for rapid short-notice deployment all over the [[Sirius Sector]] and capable of succeeding superbly at missions no other is capable of handling.
