UEG Hostage Rescue Team

The Hostage Rescue Team (HRT) is the Unified Earth Government's counter-terrorism team, under the authority of the UEG Department of Law Enforcement. They are trained to rescue UEG and Colonial citizens who are held by a terrorist or criminal entity in domestic law-enforcement situations not requiring the elite Orbital Drop Shock Troopers or UNSC Naval Special Warfare, and situations that the Tactical Assault and Response cannot handle.
