BRIEF HISTORY OF SPECIAL OPERATIONS
Each branch of the military has special operations unit to conduct unconventional warfare. These specially trained units are sent out to complete tasks that conventional forces could not complete. One of the most well-known examples would be the identification, hunting, and elimination of terrorists. Special operations units often operate at night in a low-profile manner, using the elements of speed, surprise, and action against an unsuspecting target.
In 1987, the U.S. Department of Defense created the U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), mandating a new four-star command to carry out assigned missions by special operations units.
USSOCOM has the following responsibilities and authorities as decided by Congress:
- Develop special operations strategy, doctrine, and tactics
- Prepare and submit budget proposals for Special Operations Forces (SOF)
- Exercise authority, direction and control over special operations expenditures
- Train assigned forces
- Conduct specialized courses of instruction
- Validate requirements
- Establish requirement priorities
- Ensure interoperability of equipment and forces
- Formulate and submit intelligence support requirements
- Monitor SOF officers' promotions, assignments, retention, training, and professional military education
- Ensure Special Operations Forces' combat readiness
- Monitor Special Operations Forces' preparedness to carry out assigned missions
- Develop and acquire special operations-peculiar equipment, materiel, supplies, and services
These responsibilities prove that anyone who aspires to serve in Special Operations Forces must undergo extensive, grueling training and prove that he or she is the best of the best.
