Red Teams or Red Cells are United States government terms for the National Security Co-ordination Team (NSCT). These teams or units are designed to test the effectiveness of American tactics or personnel. The original Red Cell was a 14-man team composed of 13 former members of SEAL Team Six and one Force Recon Marine. The unit was also known as OP-O6D which had been organized to attempt to infiltrate and otherwise test the security of U.S. military bases and other installations sensitive to U.S. security interests. The team was led by the former commander of SEAL Team Six (DEVGRU) Richard Marcinko until he was relieved and charged with various offenses including misappropriating funds (some say these were made up allegations, due to how easily Marcinko and his team infiltrated bases and procured top secret information from high ranking individuals). The name was derived from "Red Team", a term for the opposing force in a war game by western nations during the Cold War, a reference to the predominantly red flags of Communist nations (i.e. the USSR and PRC) with the western nations being the Blue Team. The USSR used the same colors in reversed meaning—they were the Red Team and the OpFor was the Blue Team. A Red Cell was used after the 9/11 attacks to brainstorm ways to attack America, in order to come up with security measures to prevent them. Novelist Brad Meltzer was recruited to write plots as part of this program. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Red Cell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
