The US Navy has two different special operations units. The first unit is the SEALs. They primarily perform covert operations and guerrilla warfare along Coastlines, rivers, and the rest of the ocean. However, they also operate on land as well, as seen with the Bin Laden raid when DevGru flew into the middle of Pakistan's capital city, a place where there isn't much water to speak of.
The Navy also has another unit called Special Warfare Combatant-craft Crewmen, or SWCCs. They specialize in helping SEALs infiltrate and escape from hard to reach targets, such as along rivers or canals. They also provide fire support for these types of missions, should they need it.

The teams include Army Rangers and Special Forces teams, AF Special Tactics Teams, and Navy SEAL teams.
