624th Reserve Support Group

'''&nbsp The 624th Reserve Support Group''' is the name of a mercenary unit rumored to be based out of Jakharta, Indonesia though their true base of operations is unknown.

History:

Originally, the 624th RSG consisted of former members of the Noviy-Soviet Special Forces who grew tired of the sporadic pay provided by the Noviy Soviet authorities. The twenty men who deserted were declared traitors by the authorities, but they 'disappeared' into the care of Sylva Energy where the twenty formed the core of Sylva's new paramilitary forces--part of an aggressive corporate strategy of dealing with sabotage and industrial espionage, rather than simply protect Sylvan holdings, the company would go out and counter-attack.

Paid well, the men grew tired of corporate protection and terminated employment with Sylva--though this was done on good terms. Some believe they still work for Sylva but that the new arrangement gives Sylva Energy 'plausible deniability' if something goes wrong. Using contacts within military communities, the leader of the unit, Breon Wheiskrov, recruited an additional three platoons worth of men, bringing the group up to a total of 104 members, though membership estimates give the unit a working level of anywhere from 75-95 in most circumstances.

Wheiskrov renamed the unit the 624th Reserve Support Group in honor of his grandfather's unit, the 624th Siberian Guards, an infantry formation that served in the Ukrainian Wars.

TODAY:

Today, the 624th is commanded by Li Woo Kwan. It has two distinct specialties as a mercenary unit. First, it is known as an outstanding recon unit, whether for search-and-rescue or (more usually) in the recovery of kidnap victims. Second, the 624th is known for deploying small four-person fireteams used for taking out small groups of people. For the combat missions, the 624th usually works within the auspices of the World League of Nations rather than taking any action that could bring down governmental wrath upon it.
