Deployable Operations Group
Article Evaluation
This article could use more information, one of the mains things I would like to do is add information on the benefits of the task groups, and the challenges that it faces. The article does not mention that. The lead could be adjusted where as it does not flow with the contents below it.

Section to edit

Maritime Security Response Team (MSRT) is the only unit within the Coast Guard that has counter-terrorism capabilities to conduct action against hostile targets. The MSRT is trained to be the first response unit to potential terrorist threats, deny preemptive terrorist actions, execute security actions against armed hostiles and/or non-compliant threats, participate in port level counter-terrorism exercises, execute tactical facility entry, and educate other forces on Coast Guard's counter-terrorism procedures. Although the MSRT's focus is primarily on the safety and security of homeland defense, it is capable of rapidly deploying worldwide in response to incidents. [1] Other specialized units and federal agencies that MSRTs routinely train with are the SEAL teams, SWCC, Helicopter Sea Combat Squadrons and EOD of the Navy, Maritime Raid Force of the Marine Corps, Special Mission Units, the Secret Service, FBI, the Border Patrol's BORTAC, and the Customs and Border Protection SRT. Their motto, as seen on their unit patch, is "Nox Noctis est Nostri", which translates to "The Night is Ours".

- For this section, I want to add in more specific details on (MSRT). As well as translate the acronyms. I am just doing this citation for now because I would like some feedback before I add more citations.

-I added in the beginning about when it was established since it was not mentioned.

I Posted in the Teahouse about changing the acronyms and got a response from mathglot and he mentioned changing the acronyms to wikilinks but I am not sure on how to do that.


Peer review considerations

  • Some of the sources used aren’t typically reliable, so I found a source using UAlbany’s database finder that talks about the founding of the Maritime Security Response Team. There isn’t much in the section to work with, but it appears neutral. Clearing up the acronyms was a good idea, as many acronyms are shared with multiple things, the MSRT itself being shared with a company in the stock market, a radio technology group, and many others. Figuring out how to set the acronyms to links to what the acronym is referring to is a good idea, and I recommend trying to figure out how to do that. --SetcherK (talk) 19:38, 19 November 2019 (UTC)... My goal is to link some of the acronyms to its pages to make it more understanding
  • add more information on the different types of Special Units such as port units and TACLETS.
  • Add tactics used by these units
  • add more edits in the lead to correlate with the underlying subjects
  • contexualize the conclusion
  • I have received alot of feedback from different peer reviewers and it is differently helpful and my goal is too correlate their suggestions into my editing.
