Flock

Members of the Flock fill non-combat roles in the Freedom's Flight.
== Overview ==
Flock are the non-combatants of the Flight - while many among the Flight aspire to join the ranks of their military Squadrons, some instead pick up the equally vital task of supporting the cause via other means. 
In the past, the Flock existed mainly to support the Squadrons, providing them with food, medical aid, weapons and other things they needed, so that the soldiers could dedicate their entire existence to training and combat. Now increasing amount of Flock act in duties not directly tied to the actions of the Squadrons, but instead work to maintain the trade relations between Flight and their allies.
The Flock is made up of horses of many talents, all of which contribute to the existence and success of the Flight. Many have specific jobs brought with them from a former life (former clerics as healers, for instance), but some assist as general labor, going where needed. Blacksmiths, cooks, and gatherers also make up the members of the Flock. Other areas of work include child care, construction, tailoring and more.  
Many Flock are currently being trained to sail and operate the small rafts Flight uses for trade, while others form gathering squadrons and head down to the Wilds with Striker escorts to gather raw goods for trade. Some Flock even find permanent or semi-permanent homes away from the Aerie, operating in the Flight Outposts as diplomatic outreach, warehouse workers or even vendors. Flock working in these duties answer directly to the Port Commander.
Like all areas of the Flight, the Flock has a chain of command. Trainees and new recruits often work under Flock members who have more skill and experience in their area of work. Flight has their own mentoring programs for young members, or recruits wishing to learn new skills, being fairly flexible about allowing a Flock member to change their “specialty” if they so wish.
The Flock has unofficial leaders - usually either charismatic or particularly experienced members - who are in charge of assigning daily duties, and report back to Commanders with their progress.
(Due to a large number of spies in the Flock, this job is currently closed)
