:I think it's more the case that these are pretty stereotypical characters. Dutch is the token badass with philosophical issues, Mickey is the technical expert and pilot, Romeo is the ladies' man with an eye for headshots, Buck is the toughened leader, and Dare is the ass-kicking female. They're pretty common in fiction - that doesn't make them any less cool, its just that the similarities are just superficial. -- <b>[[Halopedia:Administrators|<font color=indigo>Administrator</font>]] [[User:Specops306|<font color=indigo>Specops306</font>]] - ''[[User Talk:Specops306|<font color=blue>Qur'a 'Morhek</font>]]'' <sup>''[[ | :I think it's more the case that these are pretty stereotypical characters.

I'm not sure if the current name is entirely fitting. By naming this as such, it's like we're assuming this is the squad's name instead of taking a neutral stance by simply calling it "unnamed" like it used to be. I hate to nitpick, but even from a logical standpoint, the name doesn't make that much sense. It wasn't "Dare's squad" until a few minutes before their drop to New Mombasa. And technically, even though Dare was in command, she was more or less an outsider, doing her own thing with the squad there just to assist and/or cover her. More than anything, it is Buck's squad. This is why I think it should be moved back to "Unnamed Shock Trooper Squad"; like I said, it sounds more neutral. We're probably never going to get the real name, but then again, we don't get those for most unnamed things. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] ([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]]) 22:07, May 12, 2010 (UTC) | I'm not sure if the current name is entirely fitting.

Shouldn't it have a more recognizable name. This sounds like some random squad, not a important one--[[User talk:Raiden's stylist|Raiden's stylist]] 10:24, 19 October 2011 (EDT) | Shouldn't it have a more recognizable name.
