So what group do you think is the most elite military unit, SEALs, Rangers, Marine Force Recon, SAS, SBS, the Legion?
Tell which one you think is the best and why.

Cpl,
People will argue this to death. From people in the community I hear Delta Force guys are really unreal. I don't think French Foreign Legion really holds a flame to any of the other mentioned forces. Navy Seals are certainly the most elite authors (Joke)

FFL is more like the 82nd or Marines. Definately a cut above a standard soldier, but not even in the same league as the SoF guys.

My money would go the the Combat Applications Group (AKA Delta). SEALS do better PR and self promotion though.... ;o)

Glad you brought up the FFL because I was about to start talking about 5th group which is also known as the legion

I would have to disagree with anyone who says Navy Seals. Delta by far is the tip of the spear. I came from 1st ranger batt and have worked with both, have to say nobody comes close to delta. 6 has their specialty but it isn’t land warfare in the water I’m sure they can’t be touched. Bottom line is each unit is amazing at a certain mission.

SEALs, they're Navy, they can get anywhere (to include underwater), they killed Bin Laden.

I have to agree with you PO1 Young. SEALs Sea Air Land. They kick ass in all three & there has to be a reason why the nation always calls on them. They excel at what they do best killing & blowing things up.

maybe I'm partial , but Force Recon . They don't get nearly the recognition they deserve. Mainly because the Marine Corps refused to join the joint Operations group along with the seals , Delta Force and Green Berrets . Therefore they were not utilized to there fullest potential. Not to take away from any other spec ops they are all kick butt and could all take out any objective given.
