Well actually the actually positions that I think if you looking for a group, in many cases the group would have to be cross trained in couple specialization as you are trying to note out here.

I would tend to look at how Special Operation units try to set up their basic A-Team or look at a base team for SAS. For the SAS the four-man team would have one medic, one weapon, one signal, and one engineer specialists in the team. US Special Forces 6 man team would have intel and language specialist.

Now many of these would be cross trained as mechanics, drivers, and many more specilizations.

In the field and in the garrison, there would be one who would be leader. There would be a point man, and they would have various weapons positions in their organization. I tend to think as basic fire team in which there is a Leader/Rifleman, Grenadier/Rifleman, and Automatic Rifleman/Machine gunner for a three man team. If the team in 4 or 5 men, add Rifleman, Assistant gunners, or point man if desired. If the team is 6 or larger, you can make 2 teams as desired.

Just some thoughts.
