Unit History

The Kingsmen are an elite unit of the Starfleet Marine Corps. It is typically comprised of one Commanding Officer, a First Sergeant, EVAC Specialist, Field Medic or Corpsman, Sniper, Riflemen, and Weapons Specialist. Other positions are added at the Corps and Commanding Officer's discretion. Above you will find the official patch of The Kingsmen. This patch is worn on the right shoulder of their duty uniform with their code name affixed underneath. In order to be accepted into the Kingsmen one must pass three tests. The first is administered by the Corps and is a pretty standard test for elite operations. The second is administered by Kingsmen CO, and the third is administered by the rest of the team. It is said that the third test is veiled in secrecy and is more of a rite of passage. The official slogan of the Kingsmen is Frater ad Fratrem Tuum in Vita et in Morte (Brother to Brother, Yours In Life And Death)

At the disposal of the Kingsmen is the Gimli, am Argo Class runabout. This runabout is equipped to handle just about any mission that the team would need to throw at it. In the rear of the runabout are three sections. The first is a sleeping area where two bunks can be pulled out of the bulkhead. The second is a storage locker for mission required weapons. The third is a jump bench for added personnel. There are many missions where like the famed dwarf that the runabout is named for, it can get cramped.

The Kingsmen had been responsible for many missions including the protection of a pre warp civilization from an invading warp capable civilization. The order to seek out what happened to the USS Maine led The Kingsmen to join the USS Endeavour and become a permanent installment on that ship by order of Commodore Gregory Farragut and SFMC Command. The Kingsmen served on the Endeavour until the ship's decommissioning. At that time the unit was reassigned to the USS Nogura. This was done at the request of Commodore Thomas Rice with the approval of Brigadier General Francis Sobel.

The Kingsmen are currently under the command of Captain Jack Patton code named "Blackjack". The Marine installation aboard Poseidon Station is affectionately nicknamed the Throne Room, located in the Command Tier Decks 19 - 20 is equipped with it's own briefing room and armory with the weapons needed for various types of missions.

After the destruction of the Nogura the Kingsmen were made a permanent installation aboard Poseidon Station orbiting the planet Aquil. Jack Patton was promoted to Major and appointed as the Chief Strategic Operations Officer for the sector as well as the station's Second Officer. All of the original Kingsmen were given promotions as the unit was expanded from an elite squad to a full Marine Company. Second Battalion Sixth Marines codenamed The Kingsmen are now 120 Marines strong and ready to serve.

In 2398 the Kingsmen were expanded again. This was due to the appearance of a temporal anomaly within the Carlson Nebula near Poseidon Station. The Starfleet Marine Corps decided that a flight of pilots would be needed to assist in defense of the station. So, the Kingsguard Squadron was created.
