Cell:MFS Christine Hoagland

The MFS Christine Hoagland was founded in West Warwick Rhode Island, on 2009-02-21, as a chapter of the Maquis forces International. The Ship was origianlly named MFS HAKUNA MATATA II but one year later was renamed MFS CHRISTNE HOAGLAND when the Original Commander of the First MFS HAKUNA MATATA NCC-8162 returned to duty after a period of Retirement.

On Stardate 304.11 the MFS Christine Hoagland was transffered from the Maquis Third Fleet (zone 3 ) to the Maquis Fourth Fleet Command (zone 4 ).

the MFS CHRISTINE HOAGLAND was renamed in Honor of Ensign Christine Anne Hoagland, a starfleet officer who passed away on August 4 1997, Ensign Hoagland was the younger sister of Colonel Derick Merlin Wildstar,the starship is also named for Christina Jane Hoagland-Wildstar, the daughter of Colonel Derick wildstar. The MFS Christine is a "Explorer" class Reconnaissance and medical Cruiser, embarking the MSG-182 Black Tiger Search and rescue squadron,and Carrier Air Wing 13. the MFS CHRISTINE HOAGLAND NCC-21779 is assigned to the 4rd fleet of the Maquis forces international(zone 4) and the First marine division of the Maquis forces international. The MFS Christine Hoagland is also a member of Starfleet the International Star Trek fan Association, assigned to Starfleets First Fleet Command (Region 1)

The MFS Christine Hoagland is also the home of the First Marine Division's Armored cavalry Regiment, The Maquis Royal Dragons Guard.(The MRDG) The MFS CHRISTINE HOAGLAND accepts all science fiction fans, regardless of race, creed, Religion, or national origin.The MFS Christine Hoagland maintains a facebook page that can be viewed at http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000981898074.

The MFS CHRISTINE HOAGLAND is a Reconnaissance and medical cruiser and the First "Explorer" class Starship to join the Maquis Fleet. The "Explorer" Class Starship was Designed by Scott E. Bell as a Reconnaissance Cruiser and Medical Cruiser that incorporates the Latest Stealth systems and design Ideals, as well as the very Latest Medical bays and systems currently in service on a starship of any class. born of the very costly and painful lessons learned during the "cold war" Between the Federation and the Klingons. By the early 2300 Starfleet was forced acknowledge that its previous attempts to develop a delivery system for the Stealthy Reconnaissance craft which had proved such a valuable tool in major fleet engagements during the " Cold war " Between the Federation and the Klingons had been entirely unsatisfactory. While the Enterprise class continued to perform admirably as a Reconnaissance Cruiser in both the Reconnaissance and medical Cruiser, its cramped flight deck could provide only a limited amount of space to support and Deploy Auxillary craft at significant cost to the ship's internal volume. The emergency war-time expedient of the Reconnaissance Cruiser class, which had so inelegantly involved refitting some Enterprise class Saucer sections with custom-built saucers thrown together for flight operations, had proven far less successful than even the most pessimistic admirals had expected, and an attempt to modify the Ambassador Class space frame into a heavier version of the Enterprise Class Reconnaissance role had also proved fruitless. With the new Valkyrie fighter design only a few years from operation, the admiralty turned to Starfleet Engineering with a simple, unambiguous order: produce a working Reconnaissance design with at least double the Enterprise class capacity within no more than five years.

After extensive study of the designs employed by several member races for their own defense forces at various times in the past and more than a few all-night cramming sessions by the Chief Engineers of the project, the Explorer primary Shuttle hangar's were placed inside the After half of her saucer and held three of her squadrons - usually Peregrines, or the new Valkyrie fighter- and most of her runabouts. An additional Shuttlebay is Located in the Engineering section at the keel of the Explorer Class Starship, in this shuttlebay is the Marine assault shuttle deployed by the starships Detachment of Starfleet Marines

In addition to her Stealth shuttlecraft craft, a Explorer's commander can also call on substantial phaser and torpedo firepower - no match for a top-line warship, but enough to occupy a fast attacker until the Stealth shuttles and fighters embarked aboard can be scrambled. The ship also carries a range of medical and exploratory facilities, though when called into the field for exploration operations it is quite common for a commander to request the replacement of one or even two of her combat fighter squadrons with more versatile runabout classes, turning the Explorer into a mobile surveillance platform. With the first three ships of the class coming out of the yards and working up their fighter and Stealth reconnaissance craft groups during 2306 and 2307, no one expected the new Reconnaissance Cruisers to see intensive service until the middle of the new decade. As it turned out, however, they would be going into action far soon than that. The MFS Christine Hoagland, conducting deep space tactical exercises with her fighter wing and stealth reconnaissance shuttle wing near the Krazzle border, was called into active duty service with the units deployed to deal with the sudden explosion of violence in the region and, at Seriliv III, is estimated to have saved between three and five starships from severe damage or destruction by the timely intervention of her fighter wing to 'keep the Krazzle honest' tactically. Combined with the MFS Christine Hoagland's Reconnaissance and medical Classification exploration and Charting of the Tripari nebula in less than three days using a combination of her own sensors and runabouts on loan from the Andorian Astrographic Institute, which many in the Admiralty considered an even more impressive demonstration of the design's capabilities, the class was approved for general service by 2308 and the next batch of hulls in the pipeline were moved up in priority. Four have already joined the original three in service, and seven more are expected by the end of the decade. The MFS Christine Hoagland differs from her sisters as she is the very first "Explorer" class starship Designed to Primarily be a Reconnaissance and Medical Response cruiser . Something Starfleet Command Badly Needed as a shortage of Starships were available during the Dominion war for Medical Duty that were capable of Defending themselves as the Dominion Fleet forces often chose to attack Medical starships first at the onset of every battle.

Headquarters troop The Regimental Headquarters and Headquarters Troop (RHHT) include the regimental commander, a colonel, and his immediate staff and some command and support vehicles. These include: • A pair of M3A5 Stuart CVR configured as “command tracks.” Usually equipped with two or more radios, these are otherwise standard Stuarts. • Eleven to fifteen M93 Command and Control Vehicles, organized groups of four or five. • A number of Lafayette LRVs and trucks to provide general transportation and support The Regimental Sergeant Major (the senior NCO of the regiment) and regimental chaplain, as well as some clerks and support troops, complete this compact headquarters. 1st, 2nd, 3rd Cavalry Squadron

The cutting edge of the regiment is the three armored cavalry squadrons, number 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. On paper, armored cavalry squadron resembles a reinforced tank battalion, with strength of 53 officers, 339 NCOs, and 499 enlisted troopers, for a total of 891 billets. Each squadron is commanded by a lieutenant colonel, with a squadron sergeant major and a small staff to run things. Each squadron is a self-contained combined-arms team consisting of: • Headquarters and Headquarters Troop – Two M3A5 Stuart command tracks, six M93 command vehicles, some LRVs, and various recovery vehicles, trucks, trailers, and fuelers for all types of combat service support. • Three Armored Cavalry Troops – These make up the cutting edge of the squadron. Each troop consists of an HQ section (one M4A2 Guderian tank, one M3A5 Stuart, and one M93 Command Vehicle), two scout platoons (six M3A5 Stuart CVRs per), a tank platoons (four M4A2 Guderian tanks per), a mortar section (two M331A4 Gribeauval self-propelled mortars), and twelve supporting tracked and wheeled vehicles. • Tank Company – Each squadron has a pure tank company (never referred to as a “troop”) to provide an armored reserve for the squadron commander. It consists of an HQ section (two M4A2 tanks) and three tank platoons (four M4A2 tanks each. • Howitzer Battery – To give the squadron its own organic artillery support, it is assigned a battery of eight M108A4 Self-propelled Howitzers (SPHs), with eight FAASVs in support. The commander of an armored cavalry squadron leads forty-one M4 Guderian tanks, forty-one M3 Stuarts, eight M108 SPHs (with eight FAASVs), and six M331 SPMs. 4th Air Cavalry Squadron

The 4th Air Cavalry Squadron is commanded by an aviation lieutenant colonel and has 36 officers, 110 warrant officers and NCOs, and 355 enlisted troopers, for a total strength of 501. • Headquarters and Headquarters Troop – The HHT includes three UH-71H Mars, three EH-71 Athena, and OH-14B Hornet. The support element is similar to its ground squadron counterpart. • Three Air Cavalry Troops – Each of these troops consists of six scout VTOLs (OH-14Bs) and four Attack VTOLs (AH-49D Sparrowhawks). • Two Attack VTOL Troops – Each of these troops consists of four scout VTOLs (OH-14Bs) and seven attack VTOLs (AH-49Ds). • One Transport VTOL Troop – This troop consists of fifteen of thee newest-model UH-71H Mars VTOL Dropships. • Maintenance Troop – This ground-based troop that supplies maintenance and support to the rest of the 4th Squadron. In total, the 4th Squadron operates seventy-four VTOLs (twenty-six attacks, twenty-seven scouts, eighteen transports, and three electronic warfare VTOLs)

Support Squadron The Support Squadron is commanded by a lieutenant colonel and has a total strength of 802 personnel. Though not much larger than a cavalry squadron in numbers, the Support Squadron has the most diverse assets in the regiment. It includes: • Headquarters and Headquarters Troop – This is the nerve center of the squadron, with a heavy base of data-processing personnel, a few trucks, and LRVs. • Medical Troop – Equipped with sixteen ambulances (eight M12M3 Lafayette LRVs, eight M90 Walter Reed Armored Ambulances), the medical troop is staffed to set up aid stations to process casualties to divisional/corps-level MASH-type hospitals. • Maintenance Troop – The automotive maintenance troop is tasked with providing direct- support recovery and maintenance for the regiment. Equipped with a variety of trucks (twenty-two five-ton tractors and twelve five-ton trucks) and recovery vehicles (five M808G4, four five-ton wreckers, and three maintenance trucks), it can service any vehicle in the regiment. It repairs equipment that mechanics at the troop and squadron level do not repair. • Supply and Transportation Troop – The supply troop is just what it sounds like, a combination of warehouse and trucking company. Equipped with eighty-seven heavy trucks (thirty-three five-ton tractors, twenty-six five-ton trucks, twenty-two 18,868-liter HEMTT tankers, and six HETs), it moves something over 559 short tons/ 508 metric tons of cargo and water a for delivery to the front-line units of the regiment. 41ST Combat Engineer Company

The 41ST Combat Engineer Company is commanded by an engineer captain, and has strength of 220 marines. It has its own maintenance platoon, an assault and barrier (A&B) platoon, and three identical combat engineer platoons. Its TO&E includes: • Twelve M2A4 Ermey IFVs • Six M9 Armored Combat Earthmover • Three armored vehicle-launched bridges (an M4 tank chassis with a folding scissors-bridge for crossing small streams and big ditches) • Three Assault Vehicle Engineers (an M4 tank chassis with a modular section both front and back and a 150mm Canister Gun • Six 5-ton dump trucks • One Scoop loader • Assorted other specialized excavating and entrenching vehicles The mission of combat engineers is to clear away obstacles that impede friendly movement and to create obstacles to impede enemy movement. Engineers are trained for demolition, construction of field fortifications, and repair of roads and bridges. They are particularly vital for combat in urban areas.

65th Military Intelligence Company The Military Intelligence (MI) Company is commanded by a Military Intelligence Major and has strength of 152 personnel. It operates a variety of electronic jamming and surveillance systems. 44th Chemical Company The Chemical Company is commanded by a Chemical Corps Captain, and has strength of 78 troops. Although all civilized nations have signed treaties renouncing the use of chemical weapons, the MFMC’s chemical troops have an important protective mission (not all our potential enemies are civilized). The Chemical Corps also has a traditional mission of laying smoke screens. The company’s TO&E includes: • Six M31A1 Manstein APCs • Seven M1059 Smoke Generators (based on M2 chassis) • One M12A1 decontamination apparatus • Assorted other specialized detection and decontamination equipment In operations under a chemical threat, the 89th assigns its Mansteins vehicles, usually two per cavalry squadron, so that there is a highly mobile chemical-detection-and-survey capability up front at all times. Should an area of contamination be encountered, the Manstein can quickly find a bypass route, keeping the squadrons moving and uncontaminated. This prevents other units from getting “slimed” by running through a contaminated area. Normally a corps decontamination platoon will be added to the 89th, so it can handle the job of equipment and personnel decontamination. Air Defense Section The 54th ACR has an air defense section attached to the Regimental Headquarters and Headquarters Troop. The section consists of six M190A4 Kesserlring SPAA Air Defense Vehicles. These Kesserlrings mounting two pods containing twenty STINGER SAMs and 20mm Autocannon. The section may also be able to deploy shoulder-fired CANINE teams with their own LRVs.
