Burial Detail - 2-10 men dispatched to see to the mortal remains of comrades. They are in the process of digging graves for several recently deceased. Could be from recent fighting, older injuries or disease/sickness. Small arms only, maybe a light truck. Likely indicates the presence of a larger unit nearby.
Displaced Persons Station - Facility used to control and possibly aid locals displaced by fighting. 6-8 soldiers with small arms, and a light truck, possibly also a BTR dealing with 30-100 civilians, mostly in family units. Soldiers are dispensing some amount of food and aid, but mostly trying to corral the civilians and encourage them to either stay put or move in a given direction. Attitude of civilians toward soldiers and vice versa could be highly variable. More likely encountered earlier in the war.
Civilian Interface Group - Small group dispatched to talk with local civilian leaders, assess loyalties, demand food, provide aid or whatever the local military units require. One Major, likely from intelligence. One junior officer aide. 4-6 elisted goons. Possibly one Captain from medical, engineering or other specialty branch. Most likely in a BTR.
