What I mean is like we have these super intense marines......and then the extremely elite SEALs and Green Berets etc...but like what do they have in a place like....china...do they have special forces or is their training like gym class compared marines training...
US Units and our Australian equivilent. Training intensity etc is just about the same between us, since we train together and work closely.

Marines: 1RAR, 2RAR, 6RAR Infantry
Airborne/Rangers: 3RAR Para
Navy Seals: Navy Clearance Divers
Green Berets: SAS
Delta: 4RAR Commandos

Big difference come around in terms of our training based on location. Thats all, plus we use very different combat tactics to the US, and we've shown that plenty of times before.

Read about South Korean military activities in Vietnam. You may use Vietnamese sources as well. Government issued motivational propaganda doesn't count

And how do you back this up? When you reach a certain level, the disparities become less clear. The "best" team of the day is the one that wins. The next engagement, someone else may be the best. Then another... but we won't know because they're generally on the same side.

Green berets are something you wear on your head, not a unit.

Are Americans the ones who came up with the designation "Ranger"? I know allot of countries use it and i'm just curious if it is after the US Rangers.
