ive just got this unit as a reinforcement. historically what unit was it? it has a special unit icon so was it a forerunner of the speznatz?

thanks

OMSBON was a special operations motorized brigade created by NKVD in 1941 to prepare for the destruction of important places and sites in Moscow, but also acted in an intelligence and counter-intelligence role. Read more at this CIA page, for example.
