Squad Hermes

Squad Hermes officially Recon Team 365-Alpha is an expeditionary unit of the Brotherhood of Steel formed under the jurisdiction of the Hermetic Order. 
==Background==
Squad Hermes originated as a specialized task force, initially comprising four Paladins who once held esteemed positions in the Order of the Quill. Formed under the leadership of then-Head Scribe Bernard, their mission was a desperate quest to locate and secure the dangerous occult grimoire known as the Krivbeknih. Successfully commandeering the elusive tome and fortuitously salvaging a cache of tech, information, and energy weapons during their foray into the Capital Wasteland marked a triumph, leading to increased resources allocated for the squads endeavors.
In the year 2276, Head Scribe Bernard led an augmented Squad Hermes, now reinforced with six new members, on a subsequent mission to Point Lookout. Unfortunately, the squad met an untimely demise as they faced overwhelming attacks from various swamp mutants. The loss of five members and Bernard's mysterious disappearance compelled the surviving members to return to the Citadel, deeming the mission a regrettable failure. Despite setbacks, Squad Hermes had left an indelible mark, both in their successful retrieval of the Krivbeknih and the subsequent challenges faced in the perilous swamps of Point Lookout.
Years later, upon Kernan Bernard's return, he was met with a wave of shame and a barrage of insults from his former squad. The surviving members chose to quietly shun him, distancing themselves from both the individual and his ventures. Unwilling to associate with Bernard and haunted by the memories of their ill-fated expedition, the once-tight-knit group now preferred to keep their distance, leaving the return marked by a somber atmosphere and fractured camaraderie.
Upon receiving a distress call from Kernan's new squad, indicating the urgent need for reinforcements and the looming possibility of yet another mission failure, the surviving members of Squad Hermes were swiftly assigned a critical mission. Their objective was twofold: first, to aid the beleaguered squad in safely returning to the Citadel, and second, if possible, to salvage and achieve the original mission parameters that had eluded them in the past. The urgency of the distress call prompted the Brotherhood to deploy Squad Hermes once again, this time on a mission that carried the weight of past failures and the hope of redemption.
