Disposition
Based at Pope Air Force Base the 24th STS is a U.S. Air Force special tactics squadron.
The Air Force Special Tactics operators assigned to task forces under command of the JSOC (Task Force Ranger, such as Task Force 121, Task Force 6-26 and Task Force 145) were always from the 24th STS and never from any other STS. Conversely, 24th STS personnel have not participated in 720th Special Tactics Group operations; for example, Combat Controllers assigned to Special Forces "A-Teams" during the Afghanistan invasion belonged only to 21st, 22nd and 23rd STS.

Famous quotes containing the word disposition:
“Realizing that his time was nearly spent, he gave full oral instructions about his burial and the manner in which he wished to be remembered.... A few minutes later, feeling very tired, he left the room, remarking, ‘I have no disposition to leave this precious circle. I love to be here surrounded by my family and friends.’ Then he gave them his blessing and said, ‘I am ready to go and I wish you goodnight.’”
—For the State of New Hampshire, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“Heroism—that is the disposition of a man who aspires to a goal compared to which he himself is wholly insignificant. Heroism is the good will to self-destruction.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“It is an immense misfortune to the empire to have a king of such a disposition at such a time. We are told and every thing proves it true that he is the bitterest enemy we have.... To undo his empire he has but one truth more to learn, that after colonies have drawn the sword there is but one step more they can take.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
