1st Special Troops Battalion, or 1 STB was a combined support battalion in the service of the Army of the Iron Throne. It was one of four (4) special troops battalions in the 13th Starborne Division and served under I Legion, supported by Task Force 61 as part of Joint Task Force Rancor.




History

The battalion was formed in 27 ABY as part of the Dark Council's military reformation following the Battle of Antei. With countless worlds felled by the Yuuzhan Vong onslaught, the shaken galaxy offered no shortage of fighting beings whose militaries had collapsed and desperately sought survival through employment of their skills.


Organization

The 1st STB was organized into four companies including a Headquarters & Headquarters Company (HHC), overseeing battalion administration, and three support companies comprising Combat Engineers, Intelligence, and Communications. Within each company were three platoons and one headquarters platoon. Each platoon was composed of several squads or sections responsible for their assigned support tasks.

Each company was commanded by an officer at the rank of Captain (CO) and assisted by an Executive Officer (XO) and First Sergeant (1SG). Platoons were commanded by Platoon Leaders typically at the rank of Lieutenant assisted by a Platoon Sergeant at the rank of Sergeant First-Class.

The battalion itself was overseen by an Officer typically at the rank of Lieutenant Colonel assisted by an Executive Officer and Command Sergeant Major (CSM).
