by Roland Bartetzko , April 2, 2018
Many Western military commanders consider Special Operations Forces (SOF) to be the perfect tool for almost any job, but the current deployment model is outdated. Greater specialization of roles could help the U.S.
Whether it’s the training of Non-Commissioned Officers (NCOs) in the Baltic States, providing assistance to the Afghanistan National Army in Counterinsurgency (COIN) operations, or chasing Islamic State militants in Africa or Syria: Navy SEALs and Green Berets are found in many places and on many battlefields. Under the current US administration, more Special Operations Forces than ever have been sent overseas.
