Jerry Martinez5 said:Sure, maybe in 2010, but that wasn't the case back in 1991. Back then, these people weren't being screened or trained according to today's standards for special ops. It was war; they basically just started training within the local resistance.
I was talking about elite units globally—think SAS, Delta Force, Spetsnaz, and so on—but also specifically looking at our own history, like the 82nd Airborne in the old US Army, or even how the CIA today traces its roots back to those early specialized units like the local resistance.🙂
Whether they operated in the shadows or through official channels doesn't change much. At the end of the day, the training is about the individual and what they're capable of doing.
