Looking for a few suggestions and some advice. Options

I'm going to be starting up a military campaign for Shadowrun.

The group is either going to be special forces, or expeditionary forces (on the ground first, securing a landing zone, etc).

What I am looking for advice on is what sort of base skills would these forces require, in general?

I know I can look at various soldier-type contacts and "mooks" for ideas. But they seem to be lacking when it comes to hacker and mage characters. I'm fairly confident I can give the "samurai" types the proper base skills and base cyberware. But I am not sure what a combat mage would have as a base character, that is to say, what would the military insist on teaching their mages and hackers?
