The USSOCOM label can be a bit misleading, though. A lot of people think that just because a unit has been seconded to USSOCOM, it is automatically better than non-USSOCOM units.
There are many non-USSOCOM units that are airborne-qualified, receive just as much specialist training as their USSOCOM counterparts, and are in many ways special operations-capable.
Here's a list of the parachutist-capable non-USSOCOM units that I think are comparable to USSOCOM units in terms of specialist training rigor:
The 82nd Airborne Division's Long Range Surveillance Units (US Army)
The 20th Engineer Brigade's 27th and 37th Combat-Airborne Engineer Battalions (US Army)
Explosive Ordnance Disposal Groups One and Two (US Navy)
Marine Air-Ground Task Force Reconnaissance Units (USMC)
The 786th Security Forces Squadron and the 820th Security Forces Group (US Air Force): think of them as airborne-qualified SWAT teams
