squad are the ones fighting and dying to accomplish
the mission. By working closely together, the

Frontiersmen must pass rigorous physical and psychological
exams before they can even enter training. The
training process, though in many respects similar
to militaries all over the galaxies and all throughout
history, is unique in its emphasis on small squads,
tactical flexibility, and the unprecedented nature
of the enemy Frontiersmen train to confront. Frontiersmen
are trained to enter a new environment in squads
of 5 to 15 individuals, with very little equipment
or support, and achieve definitive victory against
a virulent and hostile xenoform foe. See The <a href="front_choosingcommander.html">Hirshelm
Doctrine of Tactical Flexibility</a> for more
information on Frontiersmen deployment philosophy.</p>
