This is where you'll find advice left by captains both past and present. I have no doubt the knowledge and wisdom they share here will guide you well.

#2: Checking Your Surroundings

Look around by tilting the Right Stick on the Switch (dual Joy-Con)(left and right), and move the Right Stick on the Switch (dual Joy-Con)(up and down) to change your view. Press the ZL Button on the Switch to look straight ahead in a snap. Remember—you must always remain vigilant.

Press the L Button on the Switch or the R Button on the Switch to select personnel and issue precise orders to your units. Quickly select your Rescue Pup by pressing the L Button on the Switch and the R Button on the Switch at the same time.

#4: Disband

Use the Y Button on the Switch(hold)+the Left Stick on the Switch (dual Joy-Con)(up) to leave only vital personnel in your squad. Disband a second time when you're ready to go solo.
