What is better delta force or task force?

Delta force, officailly known as "1st special forces operational detachment delta" is a tier one special operations unit, they take on the most difficult, and sensitive assingments the U.S. Army runs into, or creates. All Delta force opratives are highly trained, and are coursed in advanced driving, sharp shooting, advanced sniping, advanced hand to hand combat, free running, explosive ordnace desposal and retrival, evasion, escape, and survivail trianing, and much much more, they practice surgical and spontanious raids with live ammunition to build trust and comfort with one another, and are taught how to make powerfull explosive, and balistic devices out of everday objects and materials.

A task force is a temporary unit or team (often comprised of operators from several different units including Delta force, and its Navy and Air force counter parts: DEVGRU, and the 24th special tactics squadron) that is formed to focus on a specific task (usually huning down and killing a specific individual), once that task is completed, the task focre is dissolved and the operators go back to theirs respective units. Most task forces that are comprised of tier one operators are totally classified and are never publicly referd to, but there are a few currently active ones that you can find a suprising amount of information on, one of them being task force 121, which operates in Iraq and Afganistan, you see, the U.S. usaully does'nt mind admitting to killing terrorists.

It's hard to say whats better, a task force, or Delta force. Delta force is probbably going have more operators than a task force, but the task force is going to have operators from all kinds of different units, which could be a nice feture (why send in teir one guys to stop a convoy when you have some Army Rangers in your tool box.). And a task force is going to be able to develop a much better network of awearness over a certin theater of war becuase it is constaintly getting heads ups, tips, leads, and all sorts of information from the Navy, Army, Airforce, CIA, NSA, and other military branches and intellagence orginizations from Britian, Canada, New zealand, Australia, ect. Delta force would'nt have that scale of "information share" their main source is the Army's intellagence department.

What is a Navy GM?

A GM in the U.S. Navy is a Gunner's Mate, one of the oldest rates in the Navy, being one of the original 3 rates created in 1797. Boatswain's Mate and (BM) and Master-at Arms (MA) were the other 2.

The GM rate is primarily aboard surface vessels and shore stations. Aboard ship, they're responsible for anything to do with naval guns and missile systems, as well as small arms. Many are skilled armorers and gunsmiths as well, and maintain the Navy's small arms ammunition depots as well as run their Weapons Qualifications Ranges.

Bottom line - if you like to shoot and handle weapons but don't like getting shot at, this is the rate.

Can the navy fire you after having an acl surgery?

If you're active duty, it'll depend on your recovery, and whether or not you can return to your job. If you can't, usually they'll give you the option of changing rates, or moving to a shore command, unless it's bad enough you can't work. Remember that double amputees have returned to active duty - it isn't like it once was years ago.

It's not a specific medical disqualifier for SEAL's only. Any allergic response that triggers a moderate or severe reaction to foods, additives, etc., as well as someone who has a history of anaphylactic reactions to insect stings, is automatically disqualified from serving in any branch of the military. The regulation has been on the books for many years.

What is higher than a green beret?

Well Green Berets were first trained by British S.A.S by an S.A.S legend John Lofty Wiseman.

John Lofty Wiseman Part of SAS History - A Legend in his own lifetime

Trooper John Wiseman was born in Britain in 1941John Wiseman was the first to train members of the Green Berets which was at the formation of the USA's Delta Force who are of the 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta (1st SFOD-D) - commonly known as Delta in the U.S. Army, Delta Force by civilians, and Combat Applications Group by the Department of Defense - is a Special Operations Force (SOF) and an integral element of the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC).

Delta Force's primary tasks are counter-terrorism and national intervention operations, although it is an extremely versatile group capable of assuming many missions, including, but not limited to, rescuing hostages, raids, and eliminating covert enemy forces. Delta Force conducts missions similar to those attributed to the British Special Air Service (SAS), on which it was originally modelled.

John Wiseman set a record being the youngest to pass SAS Selection at the very young age of 18 which is no longer possible and now cannot be beat. His service with the Special Air Service Regiment started in 1958 and served with 22 SAS for approx. 26 years. His worldwide service saw activity in every theatre of special forces operation and was

Sergeant Major, B Squadron Sabre Squadron 22 SAS

Sergeant Major 22 SAS Training Wing

Head of Operational Research 22 SAS

He set up the SP Team Counter Hi-Jack now CRW Counter Revolutionary Warfare Wing, The CRW Wing is now nominally made up of the personnel drawn from a single squadron, originally designated "Pagoda", which is relieved every 6 - 9 months. The squadron is split up into two combined troops, "Red" and "Blue", with each troop made up of an assault group and a sniper team. Though the counter-terrorist teams are based at RHQ in Hereford, a specialist eight-man team is based within the outer London region (4, south London border & 4, north London border/Hertfordshire). This team rapidly responds to any situation in London as required

He help set up the SAS Counter-Terrorist now known as 'The Team' for such teams involved in Operation Nimrod The Iranian Embassy Siege of 1980 was a terrorist siege of the Iranian embassy in London. The siege was ended when British special forces, the Special Air Service (SAS), stormed the building in Operation Nimrod. The incident brought the SAS to the world's attention as the whole episode was played out in the media. Which was undertaken from the SAS barracks Stirling Lines in Hereford

John also ran Survival Training School for 22 SAS at Hereford Stirling Lines for survival skills on land, sea, jungle, desert, arctic, and all manor of wilderness environments. Much of the JWIC Jungle Warfare Instructors Course conducted in Borneo Malaysia is built on the solid foundations laid by John Wiseman and those that followed him. The Jungle Warfare Wing (JWW) is located on the island of Borneo, close to the border with Sarawak (Malaysia) and is supported by the British Army's Brunei Garrison. JWW exists to provide a jungle training facility to meet the requirement to train jungle warfare instructors for the British SAS and other regiments

John also ran SAS Selection Course which is the hardest course in the world to pass and out of 100 only 5% are consider fit to join the Regiment before they start the real training 'Continuation Training'. The Commanding Officer of 22 SAS is alleged to have said that, "John Lofty Wiseman is an SAS legend" a real accolade from the best.

John Lofty Wiseman has trained survival to many specialists over the years both military and civilian and has undoubtedly saved many lives by his love of all things survival. It is his principles of survival and tools which he introduced that has had the biggest impact on the survival world whose achievements cannot be overestimated!

Most Forces in the world are based/modeld on British S.A.S
