Hi, I've always admired the work of the Green Berets and I'm considering a military career after I graduate. I was wondering, what branch of the military are the Green Berets part of?
The Green Berets, formally known as the United States Army Special Forces, are a part of the U.S. Army. They are highly trained and skilled in a variety of specialized missions, including unconventional warfare, foreign internal defense, direct action, counter-insurgency, and special reconnaissance. They're also often involved in peacekeeping, humanitarian, and counter-drug operations. If you're interested in this career path, you'll need to meet rigorous physical and mental standards. Preparatory training and selection processes are challenging, but for those who make the cut, it can be an incredibly rewarding career. Good luck with your decision!
