Enclave Squad Sigma is a special operations unit of Enclave soldiers stationed at the Mobile Base Crawler in Fallout 3. They are led by the Enclave Sigma Leader.

“After the destruction of Raven Rock, the Enclave performed a mixture of tactical retreat and all-out flight, and their grip on the Capital Wasteland loosened severely. Now contending with malcontented soldiers, the remains of Enclave Camps dotted throughout the Wasteland with little or no contact or on-going tactical orders, and a lack of new recruits, the Enclave may be a doomed force. However, a small influx of specially trained fighters is seeking to fill the gap left by the Brotherhood of Steel’s advances. Posted to previously unknown and highly secretive locations outside of the Capital Wasteland, only the most veteran of Enclave forces trained in multiple forms of combat earn the right to call themselves Sigma. These six-person squads feature a leader clad in Hellfire Armor and carrying an Incinerator, and each man in has seen numerous combat sorties and lived to tell about them. Sigma Squads are posted around locations deemed by Enclave high command as “imperative” to the salvation of the cause, so whenever you encounter Sigma Squads, you know something vital to the Enclave is close by.”— Fallout 3 Official Game Guide/Faction profiles
“Supremely professional and battle-hardened, these six-man squads can prove to be troublesome, especially the leader armed with a Heavy Incinerator and Hellfire Armor. Use the tactics that have served you well in the past, or lob in a highly powerful Grenade (such as the Nuka Grenade) before the squad fans out to damage as many as possible.”— Fallout 3 Official Game Guide Wasteland Bestiary
Daily schedule
They are initially stationed in their sleeping quarters above the entrance to the Enclave mobile platform but will proceed downstairs once the alarm is triggered to seek and destroy the Lone Wanderer. If they manage to hide from the soldiers, the squad will retire back to their quarters upstairs, except the leader, who wanders idly around the mobile base crawler area.

"An ancient mobile satellite array that the Enclave have appropriated with newly developed technology, this is a battle-station where the elite Squad Sigma trains for battle, Deathclaw experimentations continue, and access to the earth’s remaining orbital payloads are attempted." - ↑ Fallout: Wasteland Warfare - RPG (Expansion Book) p.16: "ORGANIZATION STRUCTURE"
"Department of the Army
This is the technologically advanced military force that the Enclave uses to carry out its operations in the Wasteland. They were, at one time, the most advanced fighting force on this planet with their soldiers in Power Armor wielding energy weapons. The Department of the Army also fields an Air Force made up of Vertibirds and a Navy comprised of a few ancient battleships from the pre-war era. The Army operates in squads and uses advanced military tactics and gear, including sentry drones that can protect their flanks. The Army can also dispatch an elite black-ops unit, the deadly Sigma Squad, to deal with particularly dangerous threats." - ↑ Fallout: Wasteland Warfare - RPG (Expansion Book) p.16: "ENCLAVE TACTICS"
"The Enclave no longer has the numbers or power it once had, and its old tactics no longer work. The Brotherhood of Steel has matched them in technology and the New California Republic has them beaten for numbers. The Enclave now relies on small, heavily armed squads, with the best possible weapons and equipment, instead of dispatching a large contingent of troops. These small groups, like Sigma Squad, can be mustered and sent in to perform tasks quietly. These new tactics make the Enclave much more dangerous because it is difficult to ascertain where they might be operating. An air fleet of Vertibirds is highly visible, but a squad of black-ops veterans can easily approach undetected.
The Enclave can still come out in full force, but resources are stretched thin and the army cannot be dispatched as often. If the Enclave ever feels its existence is being threatened, or if they feel the risk is worth the gain, they will not hesitate to unleash their full force."
