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 formally belongs to the [[Liberty Army]], but 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.<br><br>
 
 
 
Delta'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, deep space intelligence gathering, raids, covert operations and surgical strikes of all kinds as well as assisting [[LSF]] Paramilitary Officers on their missions. They are also known to be among the first units on the ground during a planetary assault, securing critical locations like communication posts and command centers.<br><br>
 
 
 
What Delta is not is a police force. While low-level criminal activity is something the military does not tolerate, SOF units have other tasks to do than fighting [[Liberty Rogues|Rogues]], [[Outcasts]] and petty smugglers.

== 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 Delta, NCOs usually serve in combat roles as grunts as well as tactical commanders; some senior NCOs may also be in command of gunboats, tanks or other crewed vehicles.
 
 
 
* E-5 Sergeant
 
* E-6 Staff Sergeant
 
* E-7 Sergeant First Class
 
* WO-1 Warrant Officer
 
* CWO-* Chief Warrant Officer
 
 
 
=== Commissioned officers ===
 
Commissioned officers are generalized officers who earned their ranks either through ROTC or graduation from either [[West Point]] Military Academy or officer school. They usually serve as tactical as well as strategical commanders.
 
 
 
* O-1 Second Lieutenant
 
* O-2 First Lieutenant
 
* O-3 Captain
 
* O-4 Major
 
* O-5 Lieutenant Colonel
 
 
 
Lieutenant Colonel is the highest rank in which an operator may serve in field positions, although they also take part in strategic planning. Higher ranking officers usually serve as warship commanders or in purely strategic positions.

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.

The 1st only operates two capital ships - the ''LCSV Independence'', a heavily customized [[Liberty Carrier|Liberty Assault Carrier]] acting as mobile FOB in wartimes, and the ''LCSA Ft.

No further capital ships will be commissioned into Delta. Both vessels have planetary assault capabilities.

As undercover 1st Paramilitary Operators assume many roles, there are no "equipment standards" in the unit - instead, operators chose the equipment most suitable for their respective missions.

Characters in the 1st use ID and equipment based on the role they are playing.

Many 1st characters are neither wearing tags nor a Liberty lawful-related ID however: they are spies, and spies are known for their versatility. However, no 1st ship will "mix up" equipment of factions opposing each other.

+
Individuals directly and permanently joining the 1st are very rare - most agents are recruited from Liberty's prime SOF units after a few years of service. Thus, recruitment will mainly be conducted through ingame roleplaying rather than forum RP or a recruitment thread. Contacting a leading 1st member and providing him the name of your character is advised however as it makes things easier for both sides. If you're interested in joining up, make sure you fulfill the following requirements:
  
*Your flying skills. You will learn as you go.
+
*You are able to maintain above-than-average roleplaying skills in any situation.
 +
*You are a good teamplayer with a sense of fair play. Knowing and obeying server rules is a must.
 +
*You are willing to get immersed into the Spy-Fi theme of our faction and to learn our slang.
 +
*You have some common sense.
  
We also expect our members to work out and write a short biography as well as to regularly report their actions in our message dump (which will be opened as soon as we grow in size and everything is fully set up).
+
What does not matter to us are your flying skills - as everyone, you will learn as you go, and, if desired, training sessions can be arranged. Forum RP beyond a short biography of your character is not necessary, though always welcome (being a good novelist does not imply being a good actor and vice versa - we judge people on their ingame RP, not on their forum RP).

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.

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.

As undercover 1st Paramilitary Operators assume many roles, there are no "equipment standards" in the unit - instead, operators chose the equipment most suitable for their respective missions.
