Military Assault Command Operations (commonly abbreviated as MACO and pronounced meɪkoʊ) was a United Earth organization that existed as a part of the United Earth Military during the 2150s, prior to the founding of the Federation. The MACOs were not initially associated with Starfleet. However, by the 25th century the need was seen for elite ground troops and the MACOs were reformed as a group of high-ranking Starfleet officers detached for special tasks to deal with major threats to the Federation.
