LION SQUAD

**LION SQUAD**, also know as **SKYWATCH/LION SQUAD or LION SQUAD AIR FORCE AUXILIARY**, is a joint team between the United States and the United Kingdom, formed as a response to several incidents involving extraterrestrial and extra-national threats. It was formed in April/May 2021 by order of President Barrack H. Obama and Prime Minister Gordon Brown.

The British version of Lion Squad is called Lion Force.

## Mission

The main mission of LION SQUAD is to deal with two main threats, 1) those from outer space and 2) those of Organization ORKO. They can also be tasked to deal with particularly unusual activities which involve super criminals and extra-national organizations whose purpose is to cause global pandemonium. LION SQUAD is headquartered at Seeligson A.F.B. where it utilizes the Wrangler Squadron and USAF SKYWATCH resources to achieve its missions.

In addition to these missions they also have the unwritten mission of supporting The Improbable Girl and The Wonder Kitty. To these ends, they usually exist outside of the regular US Air Force command structure. Because of this LION SQUAD was designated as an "Official US AIR FORCE AUXILIARY" serve.

LION SQUAD is commanded by Major General Joseph E. Kawallis who also overseas the Wrangler Squadron and USAF SKYWATCH.

## Background

LION SQUAD was a concept first considered in 2009 as a subsequent organization to the F.D.I. which, back in the 1980s and 90s, was designed to track the activities of Organization ORKO, and the USAF SKYWATCH, which was designed to assess extraterrestrial threats. Priority to it's formation was prompted by the events of The Battle of Dick Kleberg Park and the sudden return of Organization ORKO.

The primary advocate of creating such an organization was Major General J.E. Kawallis who had experience in the F.D.I. as well as with extraterrestrial crisis. That said, the actual incorporation of the organization's assets were slow accelerated only by events and incidents. The British counterpart, LION FORCE, has done far worse, with no discernable fighting force nor adequate funding to operate effectively as late as May 2022.

As a joint/international organization it was difficult to determine its over all goals despite the fact that it began as an Ameri-Anglo joint effort.

Much of the organization efforts were those of Major General Kawallis who reorganized the assets at his disposal around the units two main missions and the superheroes.

## LION SQUAD COMMAND STRUCTURE

Lion Squad is composed of several smaller units which, themselves, house smaller components. The first component is The Wrangler Squadron, which is Lion Squad's aviation asset. This unit is commanded by Flight Lieutenant Percival Forbes-Smyth and includes all the pilots, ground crew, maintenance and ordinance components of an active USAF fighting unit. The unit maintains a constant alter with no fewer than 4 aircrews read to go. The units is made up of 24 aircraft divided into 4 flights no including transport and refueling aircraft. Additionally, one Lear Jet nicknamed "The Pond Hopper" and a late model helicopter are also attached to the unit. The prior is for the quick movement of the commander and the latter is by request of the commander.

The second main unit is THE USAF SKY WATCH. Originally directly commanded by Maj General Kawallis, it's new commander became Col. Harvey Lemmeck. This unit operates a network of satellites and a special communication project with Col. Lemmeck developed at the South Pole. There is also a super computer center which analyzes data and measures SPACEBORNE threats ranging from Alien Invasion to monitoring NEAR EARTH ASTROIDS.
