<br />
A '''squad''' is comprised of 8 Marines and is commanded by a [[Marine Squad Leader|Squad Leader]]. In shipborne [[detachment]]s of Squad strength the Squad Leader would be the detachment commanding officer [[Marine Commanding Officer|(MCO)]] and, therefore, a [[Commissioned Officer]].<br />
<br />
Approximately 5% of Obsidian Fleet shipborne detachments are considered to be squad strength.{{clear}}<br />
<br />

'''Command Squad''' and '''First Squad''' (or Command Section), 1st Platoon, A "Howard's" Company, 1 Battalion, [[SFMC 7 Regiment, The 7th Cav]]<br />
<br />

<br />
