Another particular favorite cliche is the standard "You men have been hand picked from different branches of the military, different backgrounds, different specialities, and heck, some of you probably aren't even military at all. Here are one or two sentences that describe each of you. Now you'll be going out on a top secret mission together without having any time to train together as a team."
It's even better if they top it off with a "You'll be given some special equipment and/ or weapons that are still in the experimental development stages. You won't get a chance to train with these either."
It's almost like they WANT some of these groups to fail.
So very true, I was trying to think of an example but again drawing a blank. I was going to suggest something like T-Force but I mean the whole cyborg thing throws off the idea of any resemblance to reality. There has to be at the at least they're people aspect.
