The squads that make up NATO are loosely based by geographical region. This serves two purposes; first if all squad members live in the neighboring time zones there is a greater chance that teammates will be online around the same time. Secondly, between all the squads, NATO has a near constant presence on the server. The squad compositions are as follows:

Root Squadron:
Run by the Fleet CO, Jarhead34.

Invaders:
Run by Dark Orcale

Vipers:
Run by Buzzarbait

SEALs:
Run by Stormsurge

FEARED:
Run by Fuzzymcgee
