History
Even though the task force was formed recently, the members have been united in one form or another from before the liberation to their military enlistion.

Cutie Mark Crusaders (2150-2152)
The first form was The Cutie Mark Crusaders (CMC), a club consisting of Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle formed in March 27th, 2150, while Babs Seed joined in February 15th, 2152. Their unity was based on mostly being called "blank flanks", ponies who have not yet gotten their cutie marks. Each of the founding three fillies represents a different equestrian subspecies, with Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, and Sweetie Belle being an Earth pony, a Pegasus, and a unicorn respectively. Babs Seed has intended to start a Manehattan branch of the CMC, but the effort was disrupted by the liberation.

New Equestrian Crusaders (2152-2158)
After the liberation, the Puporse of the CMC was inadequate, as being a blank flank was the norm rather than an exception. The club was then transformed into the New Equestrian Crusaders (NEC), with Apple Bloom, Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, Silver Spoon and Babs Seed being members, not expanidng beyond.
