Overview:<\/span> A highly classified joint task force combining elite operatives
from various intelligence agencies (CIA, MI6, Mossad) and special forces units
(SEALS, Delta Force, SAS). Originally formed during the Cold War to counter
Soviet psychic research, Vanguard evolved into a deniable black ops unit
specializing in supernatural threats to national security. Operating on black
budgets with complete autonomy, they maintain facilities in several key

officers forced to wonder why toilet seats cost the military thousands of
dollars.<\/p>\n
