What I'd like to discuss is how ridiculously small the STARS office was. Only Jill, Chris, Wesker, Barry and Rebecca's tables are there. They might have had made some changes after the incident but where is Brad's desk? He was still alive when the office was last used.
I'd also like to add Kevin Dooley to that list of characters you have there. While not actually STARS, he was their co-pilot on multiple missions.

Why is Jill the only STARS member not wearing a vest?

That's Capcom just hinting that every pilot is destined for death, no point in wasting space on there desk
I always thought it was strange that a fully trained special forces squadron such as STARS would be able to handle a few zombies but majority of them get wiped out by just one ..... how is that even possible ? I know the game was set that way to make you fear the mansion and give you a overwhelming feeling of abandonment but realistically speaking it would have been better to come across a few STARS members that actually survived for a while and no I'm not include Richard, he was already worse for wear when you met him, that guy had no chance of survival lol.

Here's something to think about.
The bottom row: Edward Dewey(?), Enrico Marini, Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, Joseph Frost
The top row: ???, Forest Speyer, Kenneth J. Sullivan, Richard Aiken, Albert Wesker, Barry Burton, Brad Vickers
Now, if Edward is the first guy in the bottom row (at least I think that's him) then who is the first guy standing up? Is that Rebecca's predecessor? Or is that Kevin Dooley before we even knew who Kevin Dooley was? The picture does have a helicopter in the background and it is mentioned that Kevin often operated as a co-pilot for STARS in their missions. We never see him without his helmet in REmake either so who knows, maybe he was indeed bald.
Opinions?

^ I've wondered about that dude for years. I always thought he looked out of place, like he'd randomly walked in from off-camera just before the photo I suppose it could be Kevin.....seems like the most logical answer.

It makes sense for it to be Kevin as him and brad the two pilots and are standing opposite sides of the two teams. Love that photo. Bazza Burton looks pure badass with that massive gun he is holding.

If the desks were only for the survivors, then why is Wesker's desk still there? Did he stop back by RPD to put in his two week notice after the Mansion Incident?

No way. He is a pilot for RPD and only served with STARS during the mission on July 23rd instead of Edward Dewey, that we know of. Straight from Archives.
Oooohh, I'll let you go this time Mass.

Who needs a vest when you have, Shoulder Pads? Maybe the vest doesn't fit Jill and her bust? Whatever the reason, I'm glad she didn't wear a vest like Becca, cuz she would have looked fugly.
Spoiler:
More importantly, why is Forest the only guy not wearing a shirt under his vest? Or at least a sleeveless shirt. That's just tacky.

Honestly I think it makes more sense for the baldie standing up on the far left opposite Brad to be Ed Dewdrop. Since he was the main pilot for Bravo. Plus, when we see Ed in RE0 he is wearing a blue STARS vest.

PWNERX is here. I gotta different weapon for you.
Spoiler:
Okay what's the deal with the standard Samurai Edge handgun that STARS was issued and recieved from Robert Kendo's Gunshop?
Did you notice at the beginning of RE0, in the intro, all of the STARS members's handguns have a flashlight attachment. We even see this on Rebecca's gun in UC. But that's it. We don't see this later in RE0, and in REmake we see Alpha team holding a flashlight separately underneath their handgun. Why?

That's a good question and something I have always wondered. The STARS office did seem too small for all it's members. The only desks we see are Chris, Jills, Barry's, Rebecca's and Wesker's. Why like you say did Brad not have a des ?. Or Joseph for that matter ?.
And also, since Wesker, Jill, Chris and Barry were members of the Alpha team then why does Rebecca have a desk there ? she was a member of the Bravo team, not Alpha. Why was she the only Bravo team member who had a desk in that office when the other Bravo members didn't ?
I suppose there was maybe another office in the RPD for the Bravo members which we didn't get to see in RE 2 or RE 3 but that wouldn seem unlikely since we saw most if not all of the police Department.

There isn't any more offices in the RPD. Mostly every door in the RPD is unlockable so that kind of debunks that theory

I always thought that possibly there was another S.T.A.R.S. office somewhere else in the building, which would explain that Alpha and Bravo had different offices, which would make a certain degree of sense. And then after the Mansion incident, the Bravo office was converted into something else, since we do find Rebecca's pack in the 'Alpha Office' during RE2 & RE3

Well that explains why he wore helmet all the time. never played much attention to that image, and honestly always thought that Chris was standing next to Barry, simply cs he was the closest person (before he got close to jill) in team for him, never payed attention to the one in the middle of the bottom row, guess knife should have tipped me to know that was Chris.

It was one of those vests that saved little Becky's life when Wesker SHOT HER POINT BLANK IN THE CHEST. Personally, I'd rather have the extra protection and look "fugly" than end up in a morgue.

Oh yes, good point. Maybe they just needed a desk for the "leader", though that still leaves more questions than answers.

Btw. I swear I read somewhere that Kevin did indeed pilot the copter on more than this one occasion. No, it wasn't RE Wiki, I just checked. Then again, I'm too bothered to check. Doesn't really matter anyway.

It is easy as pie. In REmake, only the GC version, not the Wii port, you have to hold R to aim, and then hold X for 3 seconds for Jill's kicks. The same for Chris, but he uses an uppercut.

Kenneth does seem a little stupid in his vid that we find. But, shit happens.
Spoiler:
Zombie in the green shirt! You killed Kenny! You bastard!
Oh, and we can not forget that Kenneth's death gave us the coolest, most memorable zombie scene ever.
Spoiler:
I would also like to go on record and say that Enrico Marini is the worst Captain ever. He literally killed STARS more than Wesker did. He can't keep up with his team, he met up with Rebecca down in the lab area and let her run off on her own. No wonder he was the leader of the Bravo Team.
Enrico Martini
I never saw him again

Ah yes. But the reason I suggested Kevin to be the guy standing up is because Edward wasn't bald. Unless that picture is really old and he grew his hair back, that is. The vest color does match.

For the record, I made that up. I just found those pics.
Now, I wish we could have seen more, or at least read more about the time period after the Mansion Incident, and leading up to the Raccoon City Incident. The stuff involving the surviving members of STARS.

I never got around to even trying. Though I really haven't touched my GameCube in a while. True. The only real source of info from after the Mansion incident was Jill diary from Nemesis.
