That's my understanding. SAS does the work of Delta & Special Forces. SBS Does the work of DevGru & SEALs.

Interestingly, the history of our Special Forces (Green Berets) is connected to the British Special Forces - a combination of the SAS, and the Royal Marines.
The Green Beret that American Special Forces wear was a tradition we inherited after American units of "commandos" were trained by the Royal Marines in WWII. Those Americans earned their Commando Green Berets, and that tradition stuck as those Units developed into American Special Forces.

That's basically the bottom line. Really, really well trained, tough troops.
In other news: I think I've tracked down a couple of those Chap Mei Ospreys. Keep your fingers crossed, but I think this might actually work out really well.

I'm completely behind sacrificing Loose's kidney if it furthers our Joe research. Sorry, Loose, it's for the greater good. ;)

Really, it's selfish of Loose to keep his kidney when he knows we need it for Joes. Sometimes you have to take one for the team.
