Savage X-COM: Tachyon Squadron People
Commander Jonelle Barret: Jonelle Barret is a veteran X-COM officer. She served as a high ranking officer in Valkryie Command for two months. When Vanguard needed a replacement commander following the disaster in Nigeria, she was tapped to replace him and got the base back online. And now, when X-COM needs a new commander to set up a base Switzerland, the job went to her. She’s harsh on the budget, accounts for every cent, but also makes sure that every dollar gets used to provide the best gear and equipment for soldiers under her command.

Major Ari Laurentz: Another X-COM veteran, Major Laurentz is the flight lead at Andermant. Both Tachyon and Axion Squadrons report directly to him.
