As I said, both are very interesting reads, and I highly recommend them! Oh, and if it wasn't obvious enough, I would say SAS and SEALs are my choices, but there are many others that deserve to be mentioned, and have been mentioned already. Although I do want to bring up US Air Force's Parajumpers. Those men are amazing at what they do. | ||

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_Activities_Division CIA SOG/SAD. Many of them are former Special Forces members who were chosen due to their exemplary performance/intelligence in the field. EDIT: Additionally, they were involved in every major conflict since the world wars. Pretty amazing experience. | ||

But i'm pretty sure they do have some "elite" soldiers in their ranks doing some special job for them. No sources or anything, feel free to share if there is some info out there. | ||

1. Better technology than most other countries, this is a smaller advantage than we would like to think. and 2. Recent combat experience. Iraq, Afghanistan, and the IRA have served to keep these forces sharp. While the German KSK, and other first world special forces are well trained, nothing can stand up to the hundreds of hours of combat experience that our special forces have. | ||

No government is going to be stupid enough to release their best spec. ops info to the public, that would just be stupid. this sums up my thoughts about present day. I'm thinking maybe ww2 era US marine corp engineers in the pacific for recent history. | ||

no, srsly, I believe that Spetznatz takes the cake. Excerpts from a book written by a Spetznatz defector: Let us not be too strict in our judgement of the spetsnaz soldiers for their cruel ways, their bloodthirstiness and their lack of humanity. Spetsnaz is a closed society of people living permanently at the extreme limits of human existence. They are people who even in peacetime are risking their lives. Their existence bears no relation at all to the way the majority of the inhabitants of our planet live. In spetsnaz a man can be admired for qualities of which the average man may have no idea. Your average training exercise: Now they come to a dark cellar, with the doors ripped off the hinges. Everybody down. Along the corridor. Then there's water ahead. The whole group running at full tilt without slowing down rushes straight into some sticky liquid. A blinding light flashes on. It's not water they are in -- it's blood. Blood up to the knees, the waist, the chest. On the walls and the ceiling are chunks of rotten flesh, piles of bleeding entrails. The steps are slippery from slimy bits of brain. Undecided, the young soldiers jam the corridor. Then somebody in the darkness lets a huge dog off its chain. There is only one way out -- through the blood. Only forwards, where there is a wide passageway and a staircase upwards. Why? That's just how they roll. http://www.kampfkunst-board.info/forum/f65/spetsnaz-the-inside-story-of-the-soviet-special-forces-21169/ http://www.amazon.com/Spetsnaz-Inside-Soviet-Special-Forces/dp/0393026140 | ||

I have to agree that in reality, the scariest grp of killers on the planet is almost certainly the CIA kill squad which takes the best from the different special ops grps. I'd put that first if only because of 1. funding and 2. the fact the CIA is fucking everywhere and involved in everything. | ||
