The Special Tactics and Rescue Service (S.T.A.R.S.) is a fictional law-enforcement agency featured in the Resident Evil multimedia franchise. It first appeared in the original Resident Evil video game by Capcom in 1996.

Overview
The Special Tactics and Rescue Service is a law-enforcement agency that serves as an adjunct of the Raccoon City Police Department. The agency is divided into different response units assigned to handle missions too dangerous for traditional law-enforcement. Such units include S.T.A.R.S. Alpha team and S.T.A.R.S. Bravo team. The agency's operations generally included urban crime as well as anti-terrorism. Membership in S.T.A.R.S. was often culled from those with a decorated military background, or civilians who have accredited themselves in the scientific community.
