Wouldn't them working as a single force, together at the same time/place be more efficient?

I am leaning towards a "Civil Affairs" type combined team or maybe a "State Reconstruction Team" or something .

Would it also mean less facilities overall if they were working out of one larger one?

Obviously there are some teams that would be limited in numbers that ake sense to be separate, like Decon maybe.

Thoughts?
Initially, these teams are going to have different skill sets, when training it sit makes it easier for the instructors if they teaching 3-4 engineering teams rather than one of each.

Operationally, I believe in groups, a command team, a MARS Team, a medical team, a commo team, a engineering team, 2-4 recon teams, etc. But the individual teams are frozen separately for security reasons. Not every group will have every team, but the team's are all mobile and the specialist teams can cross attach as necessary.
