Sounds good, approved.

Anyway, as to the ration of NCO's to 'cannon fodder' the real cannon fodder are the redshirts that aren't played by players. And they are the bulk of the unit.

But I think it makes sense that Vannin, Beskad and Corde are all fireteam leaders, maybe with one of them wearing an assistant squad leader cap because Sekula is a squad leader but also playing platoon sergeant for the Lieutenant.

This is a wartime organization, they are making do with people handling more than one job at times because they are short on experienced people. So it doesn't conform to peacetime levels (or the sort of full up TO&E of the OEF/OIF experience) but rather to a more ad hoc situation like WWII, Korea and Vietnam where there was sometimes a scramble to find NCO's and officers to do all the jobs.
